Cincinnati-shorter and denser, thats true. Columbus, mostly in one line, thats true.

You guys are just expecting every single thing I say now to be bashing any city besides Cleveland, so much that you dont even pay attention to what Im saying or think if Im actually even doing it or not. Stop being so sensitive because that post had nothing to do with putting other cities down just as 95% of my posts havent, its just getting ridiculous now.
well, with your record, you have been quite the homer. cleveland's skyline is more like atlanta or boston than chicago. end of story.

FWIW, I knew exactly what you were talking about.

I know what your saying but I could say the same with you and Cincinnati, or really 4/5 people on here and their cities, Im not unique in that. I was saying its ridiculous, because now everybody thinks every one of my posts is saying Cleveland is superior and putting down every other city, which is very false.

Just curious though, how is Clevelands skyline more like Atlanta or Boston than Chicagos? Disregarding the actual size, I dont really see it.

atlanta's downtown is bigger, but the theme is-

-a few really tall buildings
-buildings somewhat spread out, then an old core with more density

I like Cinci's downtown though. But Cleveland is much more of a 'big city' downtown feel.

And what is Cincys? You don't have an array of tall buildings. You have some average size buildings put together constructively in an appealing manner.

Cleveland's skyline is more alike with Boston and Atlanta in the sense it actually resembles a larger city and has buildings in Americas 100 tallest list.

No offense but your comparison is only hindering Cincy's reputation - considering it's skyline is smaller and less complete than Boston and Atlanta. Actually, Boston has a pretty weak skyline if you have ever been there. Atlanta has some impressive buildings.
