I wonder what went differently in Chicago than in New York to allow New York to grow so large in population. Maybe it's Chicago's fairly low rise method of development away from the lake.
I don't think it was that New York City grew as much as it was Chicago shrank after the introduction of the Polish Sausage in 1957...which of course resulted in an inordinate number of heart attacks.

lmao!
I think the stuffed pizza was invented about a decade later... which also led to more heart attacks.
Just to clarify - Septa does run 24 hours and runs buses along the Subways lines in non running subway hours - but yes the subways do stop a few hours in the middle of the night. I agree Chicago is larger and the Skyline is more massive but that doesnt always translate to a more urban street scene. Houston and Miami technically have much larger skylines than philly yet I think most would find Philly to be a more urban street scene when compared to those two
Here's one I did if Philly where in Chicago. I think Philly would be a little bigger with only a few more buildings added.
Compare Chicago and Philly where the angle's aren't favoring one over the other.
