Pennsylvania *has* to have the largest number of intact urban areas. Allentown alone is essentially the size of a top 20 population city from the 1930s, and has a much more significant urban density area than most cities west of the Mississippi!

The real issue with Boston City Hall is that it destroyed a whole neighborhood and replaced it with an uninviting monolithic structure totally alien to the city landscape in a windswept brick plaza. Brutalism is awful if it represents a brutal system of governance.
