POLL: Best skyline in Ohio? (Columbus, Cleveland: zoned, architecture, buildings)

[Ohiogirl81]

I prefer Dayton's skyline as well. I'll never forget the first time I saw it, coming 'round the bend on Route 4 and heading toward UD. I thought ... "I'm gonna have fun here!" LOL

I don't think you understand what per capita means.

In other words, there are more bars/clubs per 1,000 people that any other city in the US -in Cincinnati. More people are getting served and based on our population, there are more options per citizen.

Based on your point, Chicago is one of the most deadliest cities in the nation because it has ~400 murders per year, which is 3 and 4 times that of Cincy and Cleveland ... but from a common sense standpoint, we all know that Chicago is not one of the most deadliest cities, because it has about 3 million people.



The total amount or the total number will almost never mean anything when comparing one city to another. It doesn't make sense to.

I know Im usually all on Clevelands side, but thats only half way true. We may have the most in number and the most in variety, but you cant forget that Cuyahoga County is the most populous county in the state, by like what? 300,000+, so obviously its going to have the most. Plus you cant forget the fact that at one point we had around 1.7 million, and are serving people from other counties too who have left.

Thank you, MayDay on SSP and www.clevelandskyscrapers (broken link) for this awesome image of Cleveland and the center lakefront:

Cincy is the home to Skyline, in fact, when i first saw this poll, i figured it was going to be specific location in the Nati. I didnt really even know Cleveland had Skyline to be honest. Now that i know they do, i hope they know where it came from and thats its just on loan, haha. But the best location is in Oakley on Madison RD.

I vote for Canton




The Cincinnati and Cleveland skylines are breathtaking in their own right- but I love the feeling of driving down country roads for 20 minutes or so and then suddenly seeing a city skyline

LOL no keep your vote. Cincinnati has an awesome skyline too! That is what I am talking about. So much diversity in our cities and it shows in their skylines.

But the Cleveland skyline looks so clean and crisp compared to Cincinnati's. When you look at the older, shorter, dull buildings in Cincinnati's skyline, it looks "dirty and dusty" in comparison. Yeah, they are building the new GAI tower, but something newer and cleaner looking needs to go over toward the western section of downtown to balance it out.

There is a new hotel that will get underway toward the convention center, granted it is only 13 stories. Also, don't forget, there will be some nice buildings in the Banks Project as well.
