The nice parts of Chicago are pretty good too.

Don't worry about it; visiting earlier than the early 2000's is just asking to get stabbed or shot.

Architect here, and I've had the same conversation with you before when you did the voting tournament last time. Chongqing will not get votes because it is not iconic/memorable to people. This tournament of yours is based on which has a better skyline, and not on individual architecture and/or urban planning, so I will explain solely on the visual impact the skyline has and ignore the former points.

Like architecture, skylines are recognizable by various reasons, but primarily by the silhouette. You can recognize this city by the iconic silhouette, and you only need a landmark to pin-point what this city is, despite the hundreds of towers in the city.

here's another silhouette. Less towers in the skyline but you know immediately which city is this.
