Skyline in general: Pittsburgh (I like the Art Deco and contemporary combination)
Architecture: Pittsburgh (again....Art Deco)
Color: Denver (it's almost a rainbow of colors in Denver, with nice shiny glass)
Height: Denver (I know Pitt is technically the tallest but Denver it tall in more places)

..Anything you can think of...
Street presence: Pittsburgh (I haven't been to Pitt personally, but Denver's street presence doesn't quite compare to Pittsburgh's Eastern-type street scene and buildings meet the street much nicer there)
People: Pittsburgh (I like the mentality of Pittsburgh and despite being gloomy, it just seems like a place where I could really understand people well. I can't say that about Denver. Personal tastes just dictate Pitt on this made-up subject).
