Overall I give it to Tampa. It has a lot more character. For SLC if it wasn't for the mountains in the background to compliment it it would probably be a bland skyline.

Cincinnati, OH or Portland, OR?

Gonna give this one to Portland, OR. The backdrop makes a huge difference in their skyline. Plus Portland has a good amount of density and height. Cincinnati does too for its size, but Portland's background gives it the edge.

Raleigh, NC vs Little Rock, AR

Raleigh wins with its crown building and slightly better architecture. It gives Atlanta vibes. I hope to see Raleigh add a lot more towers. Little Rock is nice but needs more density.

Spokane, WA or Columbia, SC?

Raleigh. It has some buildings that are taller. Corpus Christi Tx or Bradenton FL?

Corpus Christi, for sure. Since it's buildings stand out more, and Bradenton appears to be less dense.

San Diego, or Honolulu?

Honolulu due to looking more dense and more modern architecture.

Baltimore, MD or Las Vegas, NV?

Las Vegas. It's unconventional look and it's also adding new buildings.
Spokane WA or Shreveport LA?

Pittsburgh vs Austin
I'm still giving the edge to Pittsburgh here. Austin has quite a few more towers and they are sprouting up like weeds. But still, Pittsburgh has a classic, dense, unique skyline that has a fantastic geographic advantage, on a peninsula.

Austin is killin' it though. Pittsburgh is one of my favorite skylines in the US.

Kansas City vs Indianapolis?

Kansas City vs Indianapolis?
At first I was thinking Indianapolis due to taller buildings but I choose Kansas City based on density and having more than just downtown. Kansas City has the Spanish influences I think are neat.

Portland, OR or Las Vegas, NV?
