Pittsburgh!!

On a nice note USA Today had this:

10 great places to study skylines of the world

Right at the top:

Duquesne Incline
Pittsburgh
One of the city's more interesting architectural elements is the plethora of bridges, which span the city's three rivers: the Allegheny and the Monongahela rivers, which meet to form the Ohio River. "They're not your usual flat-deck bridges, but these beautiful older bridges that have been rebuilt," Blakeway says. "There's a lot of ironwork to them." Take the Duquesne Incline up Mount Washington for a sweeping view of the city, rivers and bridges, he says. 412-381-1665; incline.pghfree.net
