Please explain? If you don't know what it is, say that as opposed to calling it "bull". To clarify, Orlando's skyline is "all over the place" to me. Yes it's pretty, but Tampa's tallest towers are more centralized which is more aesthetically pleasing to my eyes, but to each his own.

Tampa does not have a better skyline. Here is a photo I took from a helicopter over downtown Orlando and one from Lake Eola (in case somebody uses the "Tampa has water" excuse). I challenge anybody from Tampa to post a photo of the Tampa skyline that proves it's better.
Okay...
A waterfront is more then just an "excuse" for why a place is more desirable to someone. And a lake is no waterfront.

I know what it means guy. Height, yeah sure, nothing new. You feel like orlando Skyline is all over the place, respect. I feel the same about Tampa's skyline overall. But because our tallest tower is not centralized I see what you mean.
I like them both, but I just don't see how Orlando's is better. But thats just my opinion.
Same way I feel. I personally like Orlando's buildings much better I guess because they FIT the small skyline. I mean they are different. We do not have any dark buildings (ALL Black) like most cities so i think it is just personal preference.

I think the dark building in Tampa gives the skyline character. It they were all the same light colors, it would be boring.
These two cities are actually quite similar. What distances Tampa from Orlando is the fact that it is more historic, larger, and more relevant culturally. Demographically, they're about the same.

Could you explain why you think Tampa is more historic and more relevant culturally than Orlando?
Tampa became a city in 1887
Orlando became a city in 1885
