The map I see is this: https://imgur.com/h74uIJB I'd say there's a pretty large land area not within 10 minutes of a subway station.

Unless what you're trying to say is "places that don't have the public transport to support high-density housing don't have high density housing" - if that's what you're saying, I agree with you!

It's still very dense and a very good chunk of the city's pop: https://www.google.com/search?q=pppulation+densoty+map+nyc&o....

That's exactly what I'm saying.

When you resale the map by the presence of commercial space, practically every store front you could buy would be within 10 min of a subway. Transit makes a city.
