Are Cities Like San Francisco And Boston Becoming 'Manhattanized'?

In the past, a city was said to have "Manhattanized" when it bulldozed old storefronts to make room for dense clusters of commercial skyscrapers: think San Francisco in the nineteen-sixties or Miami in the early aughts. Recently, however, city dwellers have adopted the colloquialism to refer to a different New York City phenomenon.
