Atlanta or Dallas?
Dallas definitely looks more developed and I like the disco ball tower.

Pittsburgh, PA or Cincinnati, OH?

Pittsburgh wins this match-up for me. Pittsburgh has more skyscrapers and taller overall, than Cincinnati. Although these are 2 of my favorite US skylines, in general.

Cincinnati or Nashville?

Cincinnati or Nashville?
Close call. I think Nashville has become denser and taller over time. Cincinnati could still compete with a few new towers in the 500-700 range. Nashville is now the clear winner and its not going to be close in another 5 years.

Nashville, TN or Oakland, CA?

Nashville, TN or Oakland, CA?
Definitely Nashville. Oakland has less than half of Nashville's towers, and Oakland is not building anywhere near Nashville.

Nashville or Las Vegas?

Nashville or Las Vegas?
Nashville due to more variety, riverfront, and better scenery. We are officially in a recession, so I am not sure if Las Vegas will be building as much as Nashville moving forward. Nashville's growth will likely continue.

Nashville, TN or Halifax, CA?

Nashville, TN or Halifax, CA?
Nashville is ahead here. Nashville has 32 buildings over 300 feet, while Halifax has just 1-2. They do have quite a few though between 200-300 feet.

Phoenix vs Salt Lake City?

Phoenix, can't believe im voting for Phoenix skyline, but objectively its slightly larger a little bit more modern and as 5th largest city may have a easier time adding new towers



Madison Wisconsin or Green Bay Wisconsin

Madison. Has a much larger expanse of midrises, just tall enough to be noticeable among the lakefront viewpoints. When I drove through Wisconsin last month, although I didn't pass through Madison, I barely noticed much of a skyline at all for Green Bay, being mostly low-rise.

The Bronx vs. Southside Chicago

The Bronx vs. Southside Chicago
Does the Southside of Chicago have a skyline? I'm going with the Bronx here due to familiarity. The Bronx has several towers in the 300-400 foot range, and has a new skyline emerging in the south Bronx, closest to Manhattan. There are actual luxury apartment towers going up now/have gone up in the past year-ish.

Bronx for me.

Hartford, CT vs Rochester, NY?

Hartford because it looks more dense. Springfield MA or El Paso TX?
