actually the building arent so alike, other than the color of the facade, there are big differences. and BofA plaza was built in 1985 and Two California Plaza was built in 1992 so yea, I guess you could say TCP is the copy of Bofa plaza, but like i said there are big differneces. Either way, i think both buildings are great

Thats great! And you dont know the first thing about architectural diversity nor density.

Oh, and it would be "their", not "there".

Kshe95girl i do think you need to say more lol (not trying to be mean) but the Eiffel tower is just one building and I think holds nothing compared to a whole skyline....the paris skyline itself in my opinion is nothing special at all, and holds nothing on the other great skylines of the world.

I really wouldn't know China isn't something I find interesting, just a personal preference. **Regarding my earlier post- I've contacted a moderator to delete the misleading photo.

San Francisco, of course - but that wasn't one of your options. We may not have the prettiest buildings in the world, but our bridges & water make up for it!

I noticed some of the photos being posted are digitally enhanced/touched up which is misleading. The Hong Kong skyline is not that great imo. Too many multicolored neon lights. Paris, take away the eiffel tower and you have a very bland skyline.

I have seen all the US skylines in this poll in person (NYC post 9/11) and the most impressive to me has always been Chicago. I do not like the city of Dallas, but I agree with the one poster, it's probably the best in South/Southcentral/Southwest. Most disappointing skyline would be LA. For a city as large as it is, it's skyline is weaksauce.
