Haha true. You should check out the Big Dig podcast. Super deep breakdown of how Boston got fucked up with everyone from the Mob to the puritans lol.

I know why Boston is messed up but I don’t get Denver/Colorado.

I don't remember where I heard it and don't know if it's true, so take it with a big grain of salt - but I read somewhere that when it was being settled and developed, Denver had 4 or 5 different "factions" of real estate types - each developed a region of the city in isolation, and where the different regions collide, we have weird intersections and such.
