Columbus gets this one. Columbus has more buildings and more potential.

Tulsa has a great skyline for its size though, several really tall towers. They just need a few more in the 200-400 range.

Greenville, SC or Knoxville, TN?

Long Beach. Larger Taller slightly more updated looks all tropical. Tucson has a decent chunk of density and LBC 's towers look more Spread out, but that just makes Long Beach skyline appear Longer


Orlando vs Jacksonville

Orlando's is more dense. Jacksonville needs work on its skyline, to fill in the many gaps.

Memphis vs Birmingham?

Birmingham. It's hard because The Pyramid and the M Bridge lit up at Night make Memphis skyline more spectacular. But take away the Pyramid from Memphis skyline and Birmingham succeeds, it's Skyline looks a bit more modern and less dated. The Real Problem is that Memphis had some skyscrapers in the pipeline but failed to build them at the last minute. Supposedly still in the works and News Story is that Memphis is awaiting financing for them. if They where completed Memphis would have easily Won this. Birmingham on the other hands doesn't have many skyscrapers in the pipeline. So Until and If Memphis gets it's Proposed tower act together Memphis may win in the future, But for now Birmingham

Pittsburgh vs Charlotte

I love Pittsburgh but went with Charlotte. Has some taller buildings and will look a lot different in a few years with all of the towers coming. San Antonio or Omaha?

I think I'd pick Columbus, since DC is mainly a lot of those 'white marble' style buildings. And since DC has a restriction on how tall you could build buildings for, unlike Columbus.

Tulsa, OK or Wichita, KS?

Tulsa. Taller. Wichita has nice density for its size though.



Newark New Jersey or Richmond Virginia

I'm gonna give Newark the slight edge. Richmond has a few taller, but Newark has good density.

Charleston, WV or Lexington, KY?
