Portland's a great city, but it needs some more skyscrapers! Sorry, but Charlotte ruins it when it comes to these metros of about 2 million people have don't have good Skyscrapers.

Being next to water is always a huge plus. Or mountains. Or like Seattle, both.
I know I miss this about Atlanta. Hell, even a river adds a nice touch.

excellent photo.
portland does have a nice location next to the river, but i do agree, a couple more skyscrapers and that same shot looks twice as impressive.

It looks like a skyline shot of Pittsburgh, but with not as many tall buildings. I mean that in a possitive way. In my opinion Pittsburgh has the most impressive skyline for a city of just over two million people.

I disagree. Too many U.S. cities look the same because of large numbers of skyscrapers. Portland should retain its character by being different.
