Mostly true, but they have built new highrise towers in Brooklyn. I am probably living in the most convenient building in the US right now, with lots of amenities in a very comfortable 1bdrm. The problem is it's still $3400/mo+ and all the buildings are rentals, no buying, and most of all this is not sustainable for us as a couple who plan to have kids so we have to jump ship. It's also very true that so many Americans are willing to put up with NYC because there's not many other options for proper cities in the US. The public transportation sucks and there's now a divide where everyone I know seems to be grabbing Uber to work which is totally ridiculous and irresponsible.
