I find this city far too centralized. There's plenty of room in Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx for offices, residences, what have you. Plus the infrastructure to boot.
It has and always will be Manhattan-centric... that is why it is New York City, and not Brooklyn or Queens or the Bronx...

The other boroughs might grow population/density wise but they will never become more powerful/influential relative to what they are now, as Manhattan is and always will be significantly denser/the center of everything.
