Apologies to all who named San Fransisco as #3. I needed the landmark first (Oakland Bay Bridge), but only for that shot. The remaining answer in part 1 is merely the name of the city.

I haven't the foggiest what #9 is, but I know "Who We Are"

By using the logic that another vowel in the first letter of the city was needed, and the probability that it needed to be an 'I', I searched Indianapolis on google and found that confounded building!

#9 is Indianapolis

Answer: SimV Pilots   (note that ir reads from 10 to 1)

1  San Diego
2  Toronto
3  Oakland Bay Bridge, San Fransisco.  
4  Los Angeles
5  Illinois City
6  Paris
7  Virginia Beach
8  Montreal
9  Indianapolis
10 San Fransisco

Congrats to everyone who participated! GnatMan set the table,and thanks to Skligmunds decryption abilities, we now know who we are..... "SIMV PILOTS"!............... The last missing city was Indiannapolis City. The clue "half grand haven"?... 1 grand is 1,000 so one half grand is 500, haven loosely meaning where many of the same interest gather......Indy 500.......I hope you enjoyed the adventure! ....Clipper
