Look at the author's credentials - he's more believable than you.
I am not asking about his credentials or my credibility. I am asking that since you quote AIA you point us to an AIA release being the source of your claim.

Top of Page 88 - the article is there for all to read. I don't claim it, the author does. The author is the literary editor and the national editor of The Atlantic (which is based in NYC). I believe he is more esteemed than either of us.

Maybe. Yet still I would like to see the source i.e. article from AIA. Until then I do not have any reason to believe the article or its author.

Dude, we could get a signed legal document from your childhood hero saying Chicago has a better skyline, and you would still think otherwise. Just go away...
Well if Chicago is a facade, then NYC is the biggest facade of all. The old fashioned buildings that NYC lovers seem to go gaga over (Empire State, Flatiron, Chrysler) are themselves commercial properties. The vast sea of uninspiring apartment buildings, while impressive in nature because of the quantity, does dilute some of the better qualities of NYC skyline.
Lets just say that chicago is better. Now going by what you gave us NY is second. That tells you that there is more to NYC than just those 3 buildings. Get a clue. Ive even posted just a few other buildings and then people ignored it and started the same argument all over again.

Just because I am fron New York and I have been to Chicago many times. There is simply no comparison.
