"...unlike a city like Paris where the talk is there is a metro station within 100 yards or so of every single location...."I don't disagree with your main contention, but in fairness it should be pointed out that the City of Paris (inside the city limits) is really only the equivalent of Manhattan, not of five-boroughs NYC. Many of the underprivileged areas of greater Paris are in other boroughs ouside the city limits of Paris proper. The criterion of metro stations very close to all locations doesn't really apply outside the city limits, and much of the banlieu (as the outer areas are called) is served by the RER rather than the Metro. Nevertheless the Paris Metro is a cool system, of course. |
