I'll hazard a mildly educated guess and say that most of the computer firms here are not huge and service Wall St, eg, doing web-dev. Large software development companies would be located next door, in New Jersey, where they have things like industrial parks, which are an impossibility in NYC (I've lived here for 3 1/2 years and still not seen a single one).

And, honestly, I've travelled enough of NA to tell you: there is no similar town
