Los Angeles or San Diego?
Los Angeles although I like both. LA has more and taller buildings. Phoenix or Salt Lake City?

I actually prefer SLC's as it has more character to it, and complimented by the backdrop of the nearby mountain range.

San Diego or Detroit?

San Diego gets this one! More dense, better overall waterfront aesthetic and scenery.

Detroit is taller but not as cohesive overall.

Dallas vs Philadelphia?

Philadelphia but not by much. It is denser and more cohesive. Dallas still has too many surface parking lots.

Dallas, TX or Charlotte, NC?

Definitely still Dallas for now. Though Charlotte is extremely impressive for its size, in the next decade it could become one of the more impressive skylines in the country.

Fort Lauderdale or Detroit?

Detroit especially that iconic GM tower. Tampa or Orlando?

Tampa barely beats Orlando. Orlando may have a tad more density, but not much.

Tampa is building more towers though.

Nashville vs Cleveland?

Although Nashville's skyline appears to be larger at this point, the Key and Terminal towers are iconic for Cleveland. Cleveland looks great with its density as well, so Cleveland wins as of now. Nashville will need the YMCA, St. Regis, and a few more tallests to top Cleveland.

Cleveland, OH or Austin, TX?

Austin. It's finishing several towers and others that broke ground recently will transform the skyline further including the city's tallest. Knoxville TN or Greensboro NC?

Knoxville because of the Sunosphere.

Chattanooga, TN or Asheville, NC?
