Seattle. Toronto doesn't have much to its skyline other than the CN Tower, which looks cool because of the height, but takes away from the rest of the skyline. The Sky Dome is cool too though. Toronto's skyline might be cleaner and newer looking, but Seattle's has more character, and the natural setting gives it a plus.

Tough call - tempted to vote Seattle due to it being home, but Toronto's skyline is massive......seems like it's probably difficult to get it all in one photo. Probably Toronto on this one for me.

Seattle and Tdot both have great skylines with the edge going to Seattle thanks to the natural setting.

Toronto, mainly because I love all the mid-rise residential density.

Toronto is more dense, no question. And this comes from a Seattle partisan. However, Toronto is larger than Seattle in metro population. Not a real fair comparison.

Yeah, I'm a Seattle partisan, too, and you're right about it not being a fair comparison--TO acts as the financial, corporate, and (arguably) cultural center of Canada, while Seattle is largely a regional city with some nice liveability features.

I do too, but I like them better once people read the room sticky guidelines about posting photos first (you want to pay attention to the size and copyright issue notes).
