Sure, sure, The entire Chicago simply looks like Manhattan. Especiallly outside of the (relatively small) Loop.


Manhattan is not just a conglomeration of restaurants and bars. Manhattan is also the most densely populated and in the same time equipped with the best public transportation, area of the country.

well it isn't THAT small... the loop cbd is bigger than lower manhattan/wall street financial district and 2nd behind midtown in the u.s, making it the 3rd largest cbd in the world behind tokyo and nyc.



Here they are next to eachother. outside of dt, the rest of chicago looks more like brooklyn instead of 30-40 story apartment buildings though like you find in manhattan

here is a 3d image

Default Miami's Brickell district pics



^new condos under construction, the elevated guideway you see is the Metromover that loops through the district & connects to downtown & two Metrorail stations.



^ Brickell Avenue looking south



^ heading south on Brickell out of the CBD



^ Brickell Avenue bridge crossing the Miami River and entering downtown Miami.
