I'll go with Grand Rapids. Seems to have a sleeker overall appearance.
Atlanta or Edmonton?
I like the skyline of both cities, but prefer Atlanta. Since to me, its tallest buildings are more distinctive. Edmonton weirdly enough, reminds me of Dallas' skyline.
If it's alright, I think I'll compare these 2 for the next comparison: Edmonton, or Dallas?

Edmonton has a pretty impressive skyline for its size. But compared to Dallas, Dallas is much taller and more dense, and has more buildings. Dallas for the win here.
I think Edmonton compares decently well to Portland, OR, minus Edmonton's tallest tower.

Edmonton or Portland?
Edmonton. Love it's size and buildings. Seattle or Philadelphia?
Seattle based on topography and architecture. I like that it is growing.
Nashville, TN or Cincinnati, OH?
Nashville, in 2023, for sure. Nashville keeps growing and developing its skyline, building more densely, and going higher. It will have one of the best skylines for its tier size in the US, in the next couple of years.
They have something like 9 or 10 under construction and another 30 or so proposed.
Cincinnati is no slouch, at all. They have a truly good skyline with good density, decent height, and good total number of buildings. But their skyscraper development has slowed to a trickle, and the city does not have the demand to build many currently.
Partial to the character of New Orleans mixed with the backdrop of the quarter, and river on this one. Nashville's got a growing skyline but it seems to be a bit too boxy and generic for my taste.

Denver or Minneapolis?
This is tough. Natural topography is important when it comes to skylines and Denver wins this battle with its mountainous backdrop. However Minneapolis IMO does better with building density and variety, it's also no slouch in terms of nature with it's river, lakes and greenery. I think I'll give the razor thin edge to Minneapolis as I prefer their building character.

San Francisco. Honestly, this isn't really a fair comparison, with by far the more impressive view not just in built form, but also in natural form with the Bay and bridges. IMO Oakland is a better competitor with Phoenix regarding strength of its skyline.

Speaking of which:
Oakland or Phoenix?
Gonna give the edge to Phoenix. Phoenix hits way below where it should with skyscrapers, but it does have a pretty skyline from midtown to downtown, and is slowly building up density.
Oakland has a few decent buildings, but I like Phoenix better here.
Tulsa, OK or Louisville, KY?
