1.1 feels like it shows the high rise elements off the best with the composition really draining your eye to the fact the window looks out above a city.
If I can find anything good from KPop Demon Hunters, I’ll propose it.
You’re Gonna Carry That Weight.I agree that 1.1 is best because it actually looks like it's in the city, and high up. The others have nice views of the city skyline, but appear to be outside the city proper, and lower to the ground than the trope implies. The only one that comes close in that regard is 1.2, but I'm dinging it because the light fixtures look too tacky for it to be "sleek".

Prefer 1.1 because it's more dynamic and interesting.

I can probably go hunting for more images later, and I'm not sure if the filming equipment is a distraction, but Frasier would be perfect for mining for suggestions. Only problem is that it might be weak on the "sleek" part, but it is mainly a 90s sitcom compared to the more modern examples in OP.

Wuewuewuewuewueing my way to the bank.![]()
I love 17.2 and 17.3. Leaning toward them + 1.1 for the reasons pointed out.
10.2 is The Rich Have White Stuff, so nope.

I think I'd lean toward 10.2 as a replacement for the pic on The Rich Have White Stuff.

There's too many men, too many people, making too many problems
to 10.2 as a replacement for The Rich Have White Stuff; I think the current image on that page has a lot more "white stuff", which brings across the point better IMO.
(I do get that the "High Rise Appartment" bit of 10.2 illustrates the "rich" part better than the current, but I would say that there are probably better (whiter) pictures than that one if we're gonna replace it.)

Crown Description:

It's a random photo on the internet from 14 years ago without a source, according to the reverse image search and isn't size compliant.
A fictional replacement should be easy to find.
Can you tell that I really want to put more of Blue Lock on main trope pages? [lol]
