mystad June 5th, 2003, 11:31 PM Ummm, Savannah ain't exactly a "skyline city". And this picture doesn't capture any of it's charm.
Savannah is one of the most beautiful cities in all of the US, though...
james2390 June 6th, 2003, 12:13 AM I think its awesome. A skyline doesnt have to have tall buildings to be a skyline
Chad June 6th, 2003, 04:33 AM Small but interesting,....truely European style with an American attitude......7/10
Wu-Gambino June 6th, 2003, 04:24 PM 6.5/10, great city.
Mr. Detroit June 7th, 2003, 02:51 AM Try to get a picture with the bridge and downtown...it makes it a lot more impressive.
Evergrey June 12th, 2003, 01:41 AM I really can't rate this... the city has nothing in the way of skyline... but it's still one of AMerica's most beautiful cities... it's definately not a "skyline" city

It's a beautiful city but no skyline.
Buck August 1st, 2003, 03:59 PM 9/10 - not because it's skyline is enormous and very tall- but because i like it for what it is supposed to be.
gothicform August 1st, 2003, 07:58 PM where;s the city? where's the skyline? where's the bump in the clouds from a church spire or glass tower? i look at savannah and think, where's the where?
all i see is a couple of blocks full of buildings that are stunning only in their banality. im sure savannah is a pretty city (i know of its reputation of colonial riverside homes) but from what ive seen here there seems to be little evidence of anything exciting and i want drama.
croydon is better than this.
renell August 1st, 2003, 09:08 PM i need more pics to judge this city. this picture apparently isn't worth a 1000 words..
puer October 21st, 2003, 04:57 AM I've only been to Savannah once. But what a gem of a city. It doesn't need a skyline - it has all those parks! I can't wait to re-visit it. It's one of America's urban treasures.

What I've seen of the skyline in another thread somewhere indicates that thee isn't much more to the skyline than what appears on the top picture. Really beautiful city, but the kyline doesn't have enough style to match the rest of the place. Cheers.

Kaneda March 21st, 2004, 05:34 PM 4/10 ....
zigzag August 3rd, 2004, 08:31 AM I give it a 5, Not a large enough city to have massive skyline anyway. I love it the way it is. Urban dense European style city.

SkyHigh529 February 20th, 2005, 05:44 AM Holy cow... the comments on this thread! This is Savannah people, it's one of the most beautiful small cities around. Rate the skyline low if you like cuz it doesn't have a few razzle dazzlers, but it's not supposed too. The view of downtown from the river is beautiful, but it's not downtown that matters to Savannah, they don't want any 50 story "Your Corporate Logo at the Top" with a spire that goes up 1000 ft and all glass buildings built here. It would ruin Savannah. Savannah is an urban gem in the slow, lazy low country of Georgia. I'd rate this not based on skyline, but on urbanity and architecture of the entire city, because it's not a highrise shineyline sorta place, and doesn't want to be. - 10
MattSal April 9th, 2005, 05:39 AM Savannah is definitely a 5.5/10, no doubt about.
Just look at these photos I've taken of it . . .

skyscape07 February 3rd, 2006, 04:41 AM great city but not an awesome skyline. (didnt the city use to have like other 15 story skyscrapers in the 20's?) (because i saw this pic and i think the skyline was once bigger than that.)(hmm, they must have taken them down) 7/10

Pruim March 25th, 2006, 04:10 PM very small, no skyscrapercity and what I'm rating at. 3.5/10
hauntedheadnc March 26th, 2006, 12:01 AM When I rate a skyline, I rate not just on the number of tall buildings, but by how the buildings that are there work together, how the skyline works with its natural surroundings, and whether or not the buildings are overwhelmingly historic. While Savannah may only have a couple of bona fide midrises, the city itself is so beautiful, and its buildings look so perfect together that I have to give it a 10.

diz March 16th, 2007, 03:39 AM Savannah, GA, I think, was a well planned city by an African American.

Maxim98 March 18th, 2007, 02:48 AM The skyline is nothing. Nada. Bad.
But the city. The city is magical. Very attractive place to visit. Too bad we can't rate the city as an urban gem.

ChitownCity October 12th, 2010, 04:58 PM I don't think 2 buildings can really constitute as a skyline... I gave it a 3 or below....

Savannah is probably a great tourist mecca because it barely has any tall buildings!
