Coruscant is a city planet and Blade Runners is just a city.
If you accept that in sci fi you're going to have flying vehicles and ships and futuristic looking buildings, I'm not sure how you avoid "ripping off" something that really is just using the imagined future (past technically with Star Wars). You could just as easily say; using that theory, that Blade Runner ripped off Bespin.

I would agree with you, but you forgot the brief scene of the Works in AOTC which yes could be scene as a Blade Runner smoggy dirty city.
But Coruscant itself was a very bright city, even after the fall of the Republic.
