Very true, but I never lived in either of those cities, lol
And a lot of the older architecture in Philadelphia is rather elitist compared to the older architecture and both New York City and Boston, which is much more civil and populist. probably because of how much bigger both New York City and Boston were at the time compared to Philadelphia. Unless you want to compare the sewer systems, all of which were pretty awesome. Consider considering the periods.

This sort of thing is why I miss living in New York, the only place in the US that has architecture that’s even remotely close to this old.
I don’t disagree (I’m an Englishman who lives in NYC), but… Chicago, Philly and Boston have similar architecture
Oh my god… Sting?!

Not so much today
Ummm, maybe you’ve never been to Boston? Or, Plymouth, MA… or, lots of New England.
Dumb thing to say.
