City map comparison

This city map comparison site allows one to view two cities side-by-side at the same scale. Comparing Seattle and New York is particularly striking in revealing New York's enormous 'psychic density.' Manhattan south of Central park (59th Street) to The Battery is roughly the same distance --- 3 miles --- as Safeco Field to Madison Park. For those of you not familiar with Seattle, or New York, there is abolsutely no comparison in the 'thickness of experience' in those roughly 3 miles. That's not a comparison meant to elevate one or denigrate the other; it's just an observation which is made crystal clear by this web page.

(You'll have to plug in the city names.)
