Dayton OH or Fort Wayne IN?
Dayton for sure. Dayton's is much more dense, and overall more uniform with its skyline. It has a good skyline for its size.

Ft Wayne does not have a lot of skyscrapers, compared to Dayton.

Tulsa, OK or St Louis, MO?

Really?

Several skylines and a national monument... St. Louis.

KC or Cincy?

I happen to love both of these skylines and I would say it’s a tie

Charlotte, since it's tallest buildings are a little more distinctive and rememberable in my mind. And for the KC vs. Cincinnati one I overlooked one person posting, I'd VERY, very barely pick Cincinnati since I slightly prefer it's blend of old and new buildings, and the Roebling Bridge. I do still like KC's skline a lot, though!

Tampa, or Orlando?

Tampa due to larger buildings and being more linear. It is improving.

Charlotte, NC or Austin, TX?

St Louis, for its once huge prominence in the US and its size, has a super underwhelming skyline. In my opinion, St Louis downtown has the circular tower that looks very dated, and their tallest has a green roof that makes it look like an out building in a yard, or a tin roof on a house.

The arch does save it and is stunning. Take away the arch though, and Tulsa has a better skyline, imo.

Anyway, for the new choice, I'm going Cincinnati. It is more dense and looks a bit bigger overall.

I'm going Charlotte here, by a nose.

Austin is building much faster and could surpass Charlotte within 5 years, but Charlotte's skyline is just overall prettier. I love Charlotte's tallest building. One of my favorite's.

Charlotte or Nashville?

Both are stretched out a lot along a line; I think I like the more variety of uses in Atlanta better, but Miami has so much more and the setting def pushes it ahead for me.

How about New Orleans or Louisville?
