By a hair, I'll pick Dallas. That said, both cities should work on improving their density a little bit. I also really like the appearance of that park and river (or is it a canal?) just outside of downtown Houston, and that round white bridge just outside of downtown Dallas also is nice. Very slight preference for Dallas', but I also like Houston's too.

Now for a comparison that I'm surprised I've never tried to do in this thread, before: Houston or Minneapolis?

Minneapolis due to being more dense with better architecture.

Cincinnati, OH or Charlotte, NC?

Cincinnati. It may not be taller but it looks more dense. St. Paul MN or St. Petersburg FL?

I like St. Petersburg more, but will go with St. Paul from its impressive collection of historic scrapers and density.

Columbia, SC or Portland, ME?

Slight Edge to Little Rock, denser and feels more Modern, but this is a close match up



Chattanooga or Boise Idaho, Take Their Natural Settings into Consideration Also

Hartford, CT has more buildings, and is more dense overall. But I do like Providence's as well.

Memphis, TN or Providence, RI?
