I've got these so far: Los Angeles (Hollywood, Hollywood Sign, Impossibly Large Freeways) New York (Super Urban, Many Landmarks) Las Vegas (the Strip) Washington DC (Landmarks and Politicians) Am I missing a fifth city, or does one of these four clearly outdo the others? --- Not changing this sig until I decide to change this sig.

metroid composite 12/02/17 3:52:38 PM #23:	LA has a lot of neighborhoods that people will recognize by name even if they haven't been there. Long Beach, Santa Monica, Orange County ("the O.C."), Beverly Hills, Anaheim, Disneyland, Burbank (EDIT: also Hollywood, blanked on that one >_>). New York also has a lot of neighborhoods that people will recognize without ever having been there. Visually, San Francisco does look pretty unique, but frankly if you want this for writing, I don't think much of the unique architecture will translate well to the page. I would encourage you to pick a town you know better, though. (Like...I know LA better than New York, so I'd probably pick LA between the two, personally). --- Cats land on their feet.
