This is very close to mine. I put DC, San Francisco after Boston.
#9 should be San Diego.
#9? I guess
Yeah I originally had Boston 3, SF 4, DC 5...then changed it and just put all of them at 3... Kind of a matter of taste... I guess I could give Boston the slight edge if I HAD to also.
yeah I could do #9 San Diego but after that it is very hard to pick, thus I didn't even bother.
I was born and raised in Manhattan. What is downtown NYC? The ENTIRE borough of Manhattan, because "NYC" really doesn't have any defined downtown using the criteria of other cities.
Geographically, from about the Village down to Wall Street would be considered "downtown", but what exactly do you want to do? Go around the Wall Street area after dark and on weekends, and it is pretty deserted. Yes, the Village is culturally better and going 24/7, but so is MidTown or "UptTown".
NYC doesn't really have a downtown. In this regard, if you are only considering the borough of Manhattan as NYC, all of Manhattan is really one big "downtown".

I think by downtown they mean like the main built up part of the city. Like a Business district
If you split Manhattan into Uptown, Midtown, and Downtown, then I'd count both Midtown and Downtown as the official "Downtown" for the purpose of this discussion. You can't just count Lower Manhattan, because Midtown is the largest concentration of business in Manhattan, and you can't just count Midtown, because then you exclude economic behemoths like Wall Street in Lower Manhattan. So I say either take all of Manhattan as "downtown New York" or take everything in Manhattan below 59th.
And even then, you still have downtown Brooklyn, downtown Flushing, etc.So you could split NY into about four or five downtowns, just to make it interesting...
