Seattle has a few buildings taller than Vancouver's tallest, but Vancouver has three times as many high rises and several mountains less than five miles away.
Seattle for skyline, although Vancouver is a better city (debatable now since Seattle has the Sounders)
How does one minor league soccer team have any bearing whatsoever on the quality of a city? And you do know Vancouver is getting an MLS team as well in 2011 right?
And people need to stop saying Seattle has "super-talls". That term is generally reserved for buildings 1000+ feet, which Seattle doesn't have.

Sorry that was me you're right.Seattle buildings however do appear to be taller by view of its skyline.Vancouver skylines seems to only have density.Seattle does appear to have taller buildings with a little more architectural deviation.
Honestly both of these cities are gorgeous. Of course, being an American, I have to pull for Seattle. I'm planning on moving to either Seattle or New York after I get my bachelor's. Truely though, they both really are breath taking.
Amazing photos. Vancouver has one of the four largest skylines in North America.
New York, Chicago, Toronto and Vancouver are on a league of their own in terms of the size of the skylines. Vancouver's setting is extremely beautiful as well.
Vancouver's tallest is like 660 feet, so I'd say it has some height. Seattle only has a few buildings taller than that.
Yeah but Seattle has quite a few buildings that hover between 600 to 650ft where Vancouver goes from pretty short to one tower that juts up above the others.
There is no other skyline in North America that looks like Vancouver's. It's funny, too, because when you are driving there it looks like nowhereville, then you go down a valley, and BAM - it's there

Seattle only has one building in the 600-650 foot range, the 630 foot Safeco Plaza. I don't know who told you that Seattle has "quite a few" buildings in that range, but they lied to you.
