The only skyscrapercity here to reach a "super-tall" status, imo, still a nice accomplishment.
...& to be able to compete in the supertalls world cup lol (to the 3rd round just to be beaten by burj khalifa)

San Francisco is the best to me. The Transamerica tower is so unique and adds something. However San Diego is unfairly underated to me.

Seattle is winning? We don't even come to this subforum, or at least I don't, not very often. I guess I voted on this one a while back.

Voted for Seattle, but LA is a very close 2nd and SF in 3rd. Beyond that is a really major drop off to Denver, and another big drop off to Portland and San Diego which, while both quite attractive, both seem quite small compared to the others.

I voted for Seattle. I was seriously considering Los Angeles or San Francisco. I like how big and brash the Los Angeles skyline is with the mountains looming grand in the background. San Francisco has a great mix of buildings and bridges, namely the Pyramid. I feel that Seattle has a great mix of these attributes (sans bridges). If the other two had one more iconic building, that would sway my vote away from the city I currently call home.
