There's probably a good chance that I've missed a massive chunk of some of the other boroughs too. The first reason I chose New York is because I haven't ever seen all of its boroughs, despite having gone to New York numerous times back when I lived in the DMV area, I never made it out to see Brooklyn. The question posed in this thread is asking us which of the three we happen to find the most fascinating. I only went with New York in this thread for two reasons: At some point I decided that was enough because seeing Chicago or Los Angeles again for the nth time isn't going to help me see Lima, Casablanca, Budapest, Cape Town, Warsaw, Shanghai, Milan, Buenos Aires, Panama City, Manila, Jakarta, and several dozen other cities across the planet. I've never lived in Los Angeles but like Chicago, I've seen Los Angeles every decade I've been alive. There are only so many times that seeing Chinatown feels noteworthy or seeing the replicated streets of Delhi (otherwise known as Devon Avenue) astonishes you like it is the first time you're seeing it. There are only so many times you can go to the Zoo or the Riverwalk or the aquarium or Navy Pier or Magnificent Mile or the Art Institute or Millennium Park or Grant Park or Wrigley or the Signature Room in the Hancock Tower or the observation platform at the Sears Tower or the beaches along the lakefront or the Museum of Science and Industry or anything/anywhere else like Lincoln Park, Lake View, Evanston until you get tired of seeing it again and again and again. I've been alive since 1991 and I've seen Chicago every decade I've been alive. The way I see it, I have already lived in Chicago and even since moving away from it, I've been back there several times to visit again. It isn't anything personal or against any of these cities. The world is a big place and you only have one life. I have the same feelings about a number of cities.
