Cincinnati has the best "skyline". It's full and dense ... Cleveland has the big 3's height.
I think it's pretty impressive how many impressive skylines OH has really. Most states can't boast this.

I enjoy the Cleveland skyline best of them all. Here is a good picture for those who are unfamiliar with it.
I have to say, however, that I am very impressed with the Toledo skyline - especially when you can also see the Veterans' Glass City Skyway. I don't have a picture with both, but here is a good one of the skyline. For the size of the city, it is a very nice downtown area!

Cleveland has the best skyline IMO, but Cincy is a very close 2nd. Ive seen pretty nice views of Akrons skyline too. Columbus is average but its kind of boring.

Here in Ohio we are looking at our cities and they are really changing. Cincinnati has a great skyline that is very dense, Columbus has a normal sized skyline with modern buildings, and Cleveland has 3 very nice tall towers, with some very nice smaller ones in the skyline. Cincinnati just approved Queen City which will be its new tallest skyscraper passing up Carew Tower. They also approved the Banks Project which will be a whole new riverfront with parks, restaurants, condos, shopping along the central riverfront between Paul Brown Stadium and Great American Ball Park. Cleveland approved the Avenue District back in August and part of the 12 story tower is almost finished rising up. With Cleveland's progressive downtown, a couple new highrises might be in the works with many new companies looking to move to the downtown.
Many problems with American cities today is that they are looking to move to the suburbs, but now we are seeing a change, and more development is starting to go into the cities themselves. I can't wait until 2009. Cincinnati and Cleveland's skylines will look quite different then.

Looks like Queen City Square will be standing by 2011 with construction starting this year. This gives us a new tower, towering roughly 700 feet.

I think the 3 c's are at the top. Dayton by far, stands alone at a strong 4th position. . .then toledo, akron and youngstown
1. Cincy
2. Cleveland
3. Columbus
4. Dayton
5. Toledo
6. Akron
7. Youngstown
here's a great pic of the dayton skyline
