Equally attractive for different reasons: Atlanta, Charlotte, Seattle.

Many of them look good, but the definite top 3(In no order) are ATL, Charlotte, and Seattle.

Default One of the best angles of what is now the Columbia Center.

What's best about the Columbia Center is that it looks different from each side, which gives it a distinct advantage over most of the other buildings.

Yep. I just think that each has such an interesting design, they don't have giant logos on them, and have a positive impact on the cities skyline.

Houston wins for me. Atlanta's is nice, Dallas is EWWW, Charlotte is pretty nice, better in person than on paper, others look very bland and stale.

For as long as I can remember I always loved LA's since I first layed eyes on it in May of 1984 when it was the Security Pacific Bank Tower. I love alot of the 70s skyscraper architecture. Love how it sits on the property at an angle and I love the architectural detail.

The one in Atlanta I honestly never liked. Never liked the color and I hate the pointed top.
