Omitting the actual size and infrastructural layout, I am looking more for architecture, style, and overall feel.

Of the cities on the list I picked San Diego. I saw more similarities with the designs and glass.

Looks more like Austin than any listed.

Of course Austin is no longer Austin when you could see the capital and UT Tower from any view point.

Another time, another space!

The skyline itself doesn't resemble any of the cities listed but I guess what I am looking for is building design and style, mainly because of all the new modern style and glass towers.

For me it's Miami, but I will admit I'm not familiar with the PNW area

Well if that's the criteria then I would say a cross between Miami and San Diego. A lot of glass (like Miami) but at least the buildings have various designs outside of the traditional long rectangle.

I’d like to see more stone used on the façades.
