Salt Lake City, UT wins this one pretty easily, for me.

Salt Lake City has a super clean (squeaky clean lol) downtown and a beautiful setting against the mountains. The density is good, and getting better with several skyscrapers planned and under construction currently.

Tucson, AZ or Chattanooga, TN?

Close call. The edge goes to Tucson based on larger buildings and height.

Knoxville, TN or Rockford, IL?

I'll have to go with Knoxville on this one. Rockford just has a run down and depressing look.

Savannah, GA or Spokane, WA?

Agreed. I looked up Rockford now and thought it would have a better skyline. It looks super dated and low rising.

Spokane wins this one. It's on another level compared to Savannah. I like Savannah's, but it is lower rising and not as impressive.

New Orleans, LA or St Louis, MO?

New Orleans is more impressive based on the size and number of tall towers. It looks more like a 2 million plus downtown.

Sacramento, CA or San Antonio, TX?

Definitely Sacramento, for me. It's more dense and looks much more seamless. San Antonio has tons of potential and should have a better skyline for its size. Hopefully we'll see more of a skyscraper boom there in the future.

Stamford, CT or Wilmington, DE?

Stamford is ok but Wilmington is prettier and has potential. It looks like a neighborhood in Philadelphia.

Tacoma, WA or Cincinnati, OH?

Wilmington, DE, between these 2. To me Wilmington looks more dense, and has a mix of old and new buildings that I like. Stamford's skyline doesn't seem as dense with some gaps between a few buildings, and is more dominated by modern buildings.

Two state capitols: Saint Paul, or Providence?

I prefer St. Paul. Looks like it has more bulk. Toledo or Dayton?

I'll take Dayton's skyline. Nothing against Toledo, Dayton feels bigger and is further along in its recovery. It's actually a pretty cool city that doesn't get a lot of attention on here.

Dayton OH or Fort Wayne IN?
