The question applies to any city with lots of really tall, big buildings, really. I figure that all those tall buildings would get in the way of the wind, like they make some kind of artificial lee. I’ve never been in a big city like that.

That was one of the first things I noticed when visiting north America. The grid really does make cities super windy compared to the cities I’m used to, which grew naturally over centuries and aren’t on a grid. And I’m from a city that’s pretty windy for geographical reasons. Still doesn’t compare.
