There was a brief discussion about this proposed article on my user talk page. The Chicago skyline can be dealt with in terms of its relationship to Lake Michigan. How would someone deal with the Manhattan skyline? From the viewpoint of somewhere on the Brooklyn Bridge? Or perhaps the Manhattan, Williamsburg, or Queensboro Bridge? From the Brooklyn Heights Promenade? From the top of the Empire State Building? From the Top of the Rock? From Roosevelt Island? Long Island City? From Jersey City? From Weehawken? From Fort Lee? From the George Washington Bridge? And there are many other viewpoints. I am _not_ volunteering to start this article, but if anyone ever decides they want to do so, it should first of all be a guide to the Manhattan skyline, not the "New York City skyline," and they'd have to decide which viewpoint to describe and why. My guess is that no-one will ever start this article, and that I just explained why.
I already named 13 different viewpoints for Manhattan, and there are more. For example, if you look one way from the Brooklyn Bridge, you see the Lower Manhattan skyline, and if you look another way, you see the Midtown skyline. So that's two viewpoints right there. I won't say this article is impossible, but I would say that it would require perhaps 20 or more photos and be very long. Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:49, 22 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Most of the viewpoints would be redundant, I would think. Manhattan being a long thin island, you can show from the east and from the west and that would cover most of 'em. Powers(talk)21:05, 23 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
