---

One developer's browser-based digital twin of New York — every borough modeled and explorable in real time, built from live city data rather than static satellite tiles. Pan from Wall Street to the Bronx and the model updates as the actual city does, a solo-built rival to the kind of simulation usually reserved for a studio with a budget.
