Dallas: It's dead but improving with its art district and more housing. It's next to Uptown, the place to be in Dallas

I wanted to do this one! Lol.

I give it a 7.5/10. From what I know, it is very dense, decent shopping, a lot of bars, sporting venues and good street plan. I wouldn't mind living there.

Next poster: Baltimore

Can we post if we've never been, what our overall impressions are? Thread slowed down so 'll post..

Based on looking at google maps: https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Fount...vu6KX1LI6o3_GQ

and this....


A Look at Downtown Cincinnati - YouTube

It offers more higher end ammenities than I expected. Looks like its been neglected for sometime and fairly recently has had more investment and TLC. Over the Rhine has its charm in architecture. One big hang up I have is it appears to be choked by surrounding freeways.

Next: Denver

Delightful place. I'd give it 8/10.
How about Rochester, NY?

Downtown Los Angeles is nice once you are west of Broadway to the Financial District. Spring and Main Streets are mediocre (strictly for hipsters) and east of Main Street are mainly old warehouses and Skid Row, although the Fashion District south of 7th Street between Los Angeles and San Pedro Streets is decent.

I give DTLA a 6.0 out of 10

Rochester: 5/10 hate how its surrounded by a freeway but it seems pretty dense.

San Diego: 9/10 very alive, perfect size, dense

Omaha?
