Cleveland may have taller buildings but Nashville looks like it has more so going with it. New Orleans or Memphis?
I'm gonna go with New Orleans by a hair here. New Orleans has many more skyscrapers and is more dense, but the skyline of New Orleans is generic overall, and not super memorable. Memphis has a really original and very dense skyline for what it is (older buildings) and the pyramid makes it one of the most unique skylines in the country.
Plus, the Memphis skyline seems much taller and bigger in person, since it looms super large as you approach it driving from the Mississippi River delta plain in Arkansas.

Albuquerque, NM or Tucson, AZ?
I guess very narrowly, I'll go with Albuquerque. Had to think this one over LOOOOOONG and hard, and deciding this one was VERY tough. Neither city had any new buildings that stand out much, but to me I did like the blend of old and new buildings you can see in Albuquerque pics.

Boise, ID, or Anchorage, AK?
Anchorage i like the mountain drop between than the one in boise
I like Albuquerque's physical setting and background much more, but Little Rock has much taller skyscrapers and more density.
Knoxville, TN or Lexington, KY?
I had to do a couple of different photo searches, to figure this one out. I like that Fifth Third Bank Tower (or whatever that skyscraper is called) in Lexington more than any of the newer highrises in Knoxville, but honestly the density of Knoxville's downtown makes me prefer that one overall. Lexington's skyline was better than I thought, and not bad though. Maybe one day, the density of buildings within Lexington's skyline will be better?

Springfield, MA, or Columbus, OH?
Columbus easily. Springfield's is more comparable to a midsized OH city like Akron or Toledo. Although I do enjoy Springfield's Memorial Bridge from an architectural standpoint.
Manhattan's Washington Heights section vs. Sunny Isles Beach, FL
