European Cities Skylines - Page 328

AirGranada · December 20th, 2012, 07:32 PM

In my opinion, best skyline is Benidorm without any doubt. It is a historical skyline and all their buildings are being used, instead of some skylines in Europe that are almost empty (at night you see if these buildings are really used or not used only watching the lights).

Let's turn to serious things:

MILANO tomorrow' skyline:

KTyahoo · December 20th, 2012, 10:45 PM

my rating:

1) London
2) Paris
3) Franfurt
4) Warsaw/Rotterdam - Really hard to choose between these two. Rotteram has quality builds but Warsaw is booming. Warsaw in next 2-3 years will compete with Frankfurt for number 3 in my opinion.
5) Mardrid

Standing right behind the statues on the Duomo is a quite epic vantage point for observing the end of the world.

It might not be the best perspective on the skyline, but having those pinnacles and those statues staring at the skyscrapers is so cool.

Don't understand all this hype about Rotterdam. For me it is very average in sense of height and designs. Milano and Warsaw look better

Fab87 · December 21st, 2012, 11:01 AM

Waterfront views, quantity (20 towers between 100 and 165m) and a rather standardized "western world" design are Rotterdam's forte, along with the fact that the city is brand new (completely destroyed in WWII). Ordinate and modern cities can easily get very popular in the Old Continent, where everything is narrow and old.

Main limits: lack of skyscrapers, low density, some weird-looking towers, no real landmarks (apart from Erasmus Bridge and Red Apple)

ok

UK86 · December 21st, 2012, 11:34 AM

Imo the best are:

1) London & Moscow (I find it hard to decide between them)
2) Paris
3) Frankfurt (I think it's had it's day and is falling behind a little, still good to look at though)
4) Warsaw
5) Milan

Every city has it's own unique play on architectural style.

Hype? Come on mate. No one says Rotterdam has the best Skyline, but it is definitely one of the 10 Skylines in Europe.
And after all, there is no accounting for taste.

What is wrong with this? Some photo's are 2 years old!
