I vote for Dallas, I had a struggle in my opinion Atlanta, Dallas, and Miami are almost alike in growth fame and business but they are so different at the same time Houston doesn't even have fame like Dallas Dallas has more media than Houston

I vote Miami first because of how fast they seem to have something new to their skyline everytime I visit. Behind Miami, I would say Charlotte and then Atlanta.

Atlanta's skyline to me gets old after a while.

Atlanta has 3 skylines in their city and combine all 3 in 1 shot and youve got the manhattan of the south. Miami has a good compactness but not enough skyscrapers (its getting there). Houston and Dallas are alright but its only average/slightly below average for cities of their sizes.

The poll only lists "Atlanta" as an option, therefore, I'm only considering the Atlanta skyline, not Midtown or Buckhead.

All of those are in the city limits of Atlanta. I would say Midtown/Downtown Atlanta form the central core of the city now. It's not just downtown.

It's really tough to choose between Atlanta, Dallas, Houston & Miami because I like all of them for different reasons. It's a toss-up for me.

Midtown and Buckhead ARE Atlanta; they are in the city limits. Seriously, you can look up this stuff before posting to save face.

Yeah, I was also under the impression that Buckhead and Midtown were in the Atlanta city-limits.

The only skylines that aren't are Sandy Springs and Cumberland, both of which are less impressive than downtown, Midtown, and Buckhead.

Those pics of Atlanta on the previous page are some of the finest I've ever seen. It truly is one of the most beautiful cities in the nation. The skyline is orgasmic.
