I've pondered a bit further about what to call this category, and suggest it could be divided into two parts:
1. 'Cityscapes': photos taken across many rooftops, or of a wide open space in an urban area showing many buildings.
2. 'Streetscapes': photos taken at (more or less) ground level that show objects in their built environment which are arranged in such a way as to form graphically interesting relationships and/or suggest incongruity, ideas, a particular mood, humour etc.
Hmm, on the basis of that I think the writers of the Oxford English Dictionary can rest easy in their jobs! Any modifications/other ideas?

I've split this thread into two, being this one and the newly created thread for broader urban landscapes and cityscapes found here.
This thread is now for urban images taken at street level (but not street, see here).
See the revised initial Urban Image thread description here.
