Any orderly city with lots of green and without rotting homes full of graffiti and trash on the streets tends to be more or less beautiful. Dubuque seem nice
New York City is absolutely unique. Nowhere else in America can rival NY's enormous energy, its vast jungle of tall buildings, and its amazing history dating back to the birth of America and before.. Washington DC is also a unique experience, not a typical "grid" city--not too many ugly grid-like highrises and condos trying to be passed off as "architecture" and its streets also form a wagon wheel. SanFrancisco also feels unique. No place else in America offers that perfect blend of high density, high vibrancy, awesome food, and consistently decent weather like San Fran.
I personally love cities like Santa Barbara , California that have a uniqueness all there own and are strikingly beautiful and the entire city has on overall theme and look that is very cohesive through out the city . My other favorite city would be Charleston S.C. A very unique , authentic , city that in many regards has a European feel and quality about it , with very old and beautifully preserved architecture through out the city with intimate gardens and back alleys similar to many European cities . What would your favorite cites be and why ?
I think ANCHORAGE is something special!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
