NYC has a very large variation of density, from skyscrapers packed near each other to relaxed areas of 2-3-story buildings. Interestingly, it's not just packed Manhattan vs deep two-story Brooklyn. Manhattan is very uneven and has both 100-story buildings and 3-story buildings maybe a couple miles apart, and it's not downtown vs outskirts, but the general urban mix.
