"Please excuse the crudity of this model. I didn't have time to build it to scale or to paint it."

I don't live there. But it is one of the if not the best city in the world. It was a joke tho that could be said for most cities.

Not very. I assume the right is downtown (more taller buildings that way) and it's missing columbus circle and grand army plaza at minimum.

1/2 It's not accurate. The park in the model is far too narrow, judging by the buildings on the right; there are only six of them. The real

2/2 Central Park is three blocks wide, and that's by the avenue (as opposed to the street). So there should be a lot more buildings.
