The only reason it's so bad is that NYC was a city pre-automobile. That is, it didn't develop after the invention of the automobile. Had it, it would resemble LA or Phoenix instead. That doesn't mean that as an urban model it's superior, only that it's different. In a great many ways, the pre-automobile city is inferior in design to ones that are car-centric.

It was founded in 1881.
Every fucking city on the east coast was far before autos. Arizona became a state in 1912. Phoenix was founded in 1881. Before autos, way before. There were no roads . Ike signed the national road system in 1956. That is why there were almost no cars in the west. No local manufacturing either.
That's not the point. Up to the 70's Phoenix was a small city with an even smaller footprint that was older than about 1930.
The point is, that most of the city was developed after the automobile was invented, and most of the substantial growth happened in the later half of the 20th Century. Founding, and its growth and development into a large city are two very distinct things.

That's Phoenix in the 30's. It was a small town of nothing at the time. It is as I pointed out, an auto-centric city developed after the invention of the automobile in the late 20th Century. New York City was a large city in the 18th Century and has grown since. Its layout predates the automobile.
