Detroit takes this one. Detroit has more than double Kansas City's skyscrapers over 300 feet. It's much more dynamic, and is actually growing a bit, with a tower currently under construction in Detroit over 600 feet.
Austin vs Denver?
Currently I'd say Denver but Austin is rapidly catching up! Roanoke VA or Augusta GA?
Philadelphia definitely. More interesting buildings and a sizeable river.
Spokane vs Asheville?
Asheville for its more classic and put together skyline. Asheville did not experience the boom I thought it would in the last decade. Seems like it would have made a nice location for a few headquarters.

Charlotte, NC or Cleveland, OH?
Charlotte has the better "tallest" building, but honestly, I like Cleveland's just a tad more here. Cleveland's is less clustered together, and much more spread out, but something about it looks old and classic, balanced with newer skylines.
Plus, Cleveland has the new HQ for Sherwin Williams going up now, and that will add a nice new 600+ footer to their skyline.

Nashville vs Portland, OR?
Portland for now because Portland's tallest buildings are taller than Nashville's current tallest but Nashville has a lot more in the pipeline. Portland ME or Manchester NH?

This is a tough one for me because Portland is the prettier city and has a significantly more beautiful natural setting (although Manchester’s setting on the Merrimack isn’t ugly by any stretch of the imagination) but it’s a compact, almost European-esque city with no standout skyscrapers so if you’re strictly basing it off of height, Manchester wins. However, Portland’s skyline has a lot more history and character IMO even tho the buildings are taller in Manchester. So I’m gonna say Portland for that reason.

Rovhester, New York vs Springfield, Mass
This one is close! I'm going with Rochester. It's tallest buildings are a little taller. Greensboro NC or Shreveport LA?

Greensboro for looking modern and better architecture.
Raleigh, NC or Tacoma, WA?
