Some of those cities aren't even close to 200,000 in people. You should post them in another thread.

Do the cities have to be right at 200,000 or is it not over 300,000 or less than 200,000? and this number is just city not metro right?

Close to 200k as possible. Lower 300k is acceptable.

I think Richmond as one of the most unfortunate, pitiful skylines in the country--they look like 20story concrete refridgerators with windows...who designed an entire city of this stuff?

Yeah..maybe the METRO is but the city itself isnt...The city has 183,133 people as of the 2000 census...Little Rock's metropolitan area is comprised of 6 counties: Pulaski County, Faulkner County, Saline County, Lonoke County, Perry County, and Grant County. The metropolitan area also includes the cities of North Little Rock, Conway, Jacksonville, Benton, Sherwood, Cabot, Maumelle, Bryant, Beebe, and Sheridan..this thread says cities..not metros..and yes Little Rock is a beautiful city...if you havent been there dont judge it...because im sure once you were there it could probably change your mind.....

I've actually always enjoyed the Richmond skyline. Not exactly for its stunning architecture, but just because it is a decently sized skyline for a city its size. I guess I also like it cause it's one of the few exciting things to look at when I make the drive up 95 from Miami to Baltimore. I like how 95 runs RIGHT through the city. The highrises come up right to the interstate and gives a nice towering effect.
