Definitely Rochester, Minnesota. It has a big downtown (area wise) and has buildings taller than most cities twice or three times its size. It has a population of 110,000 and a metro population of 190,000 and has buildings well over 300 feet, with the tallest being around 350 feet.

Also, Des Moines. Golden Valley and St. Louis Park MN have a shared skyline that is decent, but it is also only a few miles west of Downtown Minneapolis.

More of Rochester. Crazy for a less than 200,000 metro.

Are most of those Rochester buildings due to the Mayo Clinic?

Yes, I believe 5 of the tallest buildings are part of the mayo clinic complex, yet still their own separate building.
