    ahh i comment over and over each post more useless than the next. anyways nice pics quote>

    Im pretty sure you've made your point across by now. This is solely on opinion no need to turn it into a contest.

    Personally im not a fan of either.

    But at the same time both are good. Philly is full of history, but Pittsburgh is unique and its hilly terrian is more beautiful in my opinion.

    All right! For starters, Aren't you st louis dude?

    What's up with that? If I were you I'd be voting for my hometown (go Cards!) instead of pitting these two siblings in death match of skylines. Ok, now to address the comparison. . .

    Granted, Pittsburgh has an impressive skyline, swept together as the three rivers converge, but my vote goes to Philly for two reasons: 

    1. Philly has a more impressive 'upthrust" into the sky, especially as viewed from the southern approach.

    2.Architecturally, Philly has much more diversity, born of age and history; from the soaring Liberty complexes, to the industrial era Bourse Building, the fantastic Acropolis of the Art Museum, and finally to the remaining colonial buildings in the old city.

    Philly gets my vote.
