I'm going with Tulsa here. Taller towers and a few more overall than Rochester.
Boston or Dallas?
Boston due to the waterfront and less interstates slicing up the view. Boston and Dallas have average skylines for their size, but atleast Boston makes up for it in density.

Richmond, VA or Tampa, FL?
Tampa for me and it's still adding towers. Peoria IL or Cedar Rapids IA?
Close call. I will choose Peoria for its mix of archirecture and notes of art deco and gothic styles. The Illinois River is very beautiful.
Norfolk, VA or Sarasota, FL?
I'll go with Norfolk, as there are(thanks Wikipedia) 8 buildings taller than Sarasota's tallest building at 261 feet. And I like the design, of the Norfolk Scope Arena.
Jacksonville. Norfolk's is very underwhelming for a metro its size (several skylines in NoVa are better and/or more expansive), and although Jacksonville's is still a bit below weight, it still has the taller buildings plus the bridges in its core to make it stand out more. That I-95 bridge over the St. John's is especially breathtaking for tourists/snowbirds heading south as its the first real skyline you encounter since Richmond, giving the feeling to many that they're "almost there", which gives it bonus points. Jacksonville's is actually three skylines in one: Downtown, Brooklyn, and Southbank.
Crystal City, Arlington, VA or Boston's Seaport area?

Those bridges are absolutely stunning! They make the views of the city feel big. I often imagine how neat Jax would look with Miami's level of construction.
Crystal City is certainly impressive from a density perspective. However, Boston's Seaport looks fresher and taller. Boston wins.

Ft. Lauderdale, FL or Omaha, NE?
I like both but give the edge to Ft. Lauderdale due to the fact that it's still adding buildings and seems more uniform in height. Lubbock Tx or Shreveport La?

Shreveport's is a bit better.
