There was a USSC case on that subject in 1998, New Jersey v. New York.

Catholic School. Actually spent most of my years there living within walking distance. So I am a Manhattan Jasper...class of 1963. And it was always a topic of conversation why Manhattan College was in the Bronx.

But actually immaterial. Super subway access and the students came from all over the city...though actually very few from Manhattan. The Bronx and Brooklyn was the base of my class mates. I was in the Engineering School and virtually everyone came out of the tech high schools.

The Rocky mountains and Denver.
96% of Yellowstone NP is in Wyoming. 3% in Montana (~104 square miles) and 1% in Idaho.

Yeah, I get that Montana likes to flex about having more entrance gates or something, but Yellowstone is by and large, almost strictly a Wyoming thing.

Lincoln Park Zoo is probably the only Big City FREE zoo and even in the Nation yet. It still draws lots of tourist just north of downtown Chicago and TripAdvisor ranks it at #43 of over 700 things to do in Chicago. The zoo still has 1,100 animal on 35-acres. The Suburban Brookfield Zoo is 216-acres 14-miles west of downtown Chicago with 2,300 animals.

Northwestern has its Northwestern University Pritzker School of Law 20-acre campus in downtown Chicago also. The University of Illinois main Campus is in Urbana-Champaign IL, but has also its University of Illinois 240-acre Chicago campus just southwest of the Loop by downtown Chicago.

Northwestern still gets associated with Chicago and its main Campus in Evanston IL is just over the border of the Chicago city limits. Can't get closer to that compared to some Universities associated with cities many miles out and even Nortre Dame University is over 70 miles straight line to the west of the city in comparison.
