The constant roar of humanity pounding out a living is an experience to, at least, have once in life.
Not interested . Too many people living inside each other's pockets .

I kind of feel the same way about ever wanting to drive through West Texas again.........it was miserable.
I loved driving through West Texas on the way to Tuscon. The volume of traffic was pretty moderate, the gentle hills were lovely and the vast emptiness was enchanting.
I also love NYC. Don't have to live there, but a visit is nice.
My best memory of an NYC drive was on a shuttle E350 with wife and two sons about ten years ago. CAL had cheerfully cancelled our flight back to Dayton from EWR enroute from SJU, so we spent the night in an airport hotel and shuttled to LGA the next morning.
The drive through the Holland Tunnel and through Chinatown on the way to that dump known as LaGuardia was magic.
Since we had been last minute rebooked, we had to be SSSS, but the TSA guys at LGA were really great.
A fun unexpected diversion courtesy of bad winter weather in December 2008.
Only cost a couple of hundred more with the hotel rooms and shuttle ride and worked out just fine.
