A lot of "doing cool shit" 20th century development in the US happened outside of NY. Hollywood and aviation in LA. Tech in various places (Texas Instruments, for example, before Silicon Valley became THE place). Automobiles in Detroit. NY wasn't necessarily "uncool" the whole time, but there was definitely a time late in the century where it felt like it could've gone a similar way as Detroit, and became a completely hollowed shell.
