Not bad, although could use some more buildings in its skyline, though. 7/10.
Not a very impressive skyline, but the whole setting around the river adds a lot. I give it a 5.5/10.
I'm all for quality, and with the exception of the Capitol, and a few others, it's a very poor skyline.

5/10
I give it 6.5

Looks clean which adds to my score but the dilapidated looking surroundings (the warehouses and other industrial) makes the surrounding area infringe on how nice the skyline looks. Still, I know that BR has seen some good growth over the last few years in terms of population so I wouldn't be surprised if some projects of significance were coming down the pike.
4/10 - I've been to Baton Rouge and it's skyline didn't impress me.
A 4 is pushing it! Very boring.
I like de bigs rivers

City 5.5/10

River and bridge 10/10

Final rate. 7/10
I give 6.5/10
The skyline seems boxy and colorless, though I know that in the shadow of those unpossessing buildings, you find a lot to love. The art deco state capitol building is also a stunner. Overall, I guess I'll go with 6.
Quite average, but OK for a city of this size... 6/10
For its size it deserves a 7/10
there is a height limit. All buildings have to be shorter than capitol
6/10
