Reply to comment by caroline_elly in Is there any reason why the wind is so much more aggressive in Jersey City compared to the surrounding areas? by yesiam_samiam

My understanding is that while the buildings do block it, it still has to go somewhere, so wherever there’s room for the wind to go, it creates wind tunnels around them. It really only works to truly block if it’s all densely packed (like if you’re walking down the block in midtown it’s ok, but then as soon as you get to the corner you get slammed)
