> Why can’t we build a new nuclear plant in Manhattan

We should, it would replace significant amounts of natural gas usage for space heating. Not doing so is literally cooking the planet.

I think a nuclear plant in Manhattan would cost far more than just building the plant in outer NY, and then running a big power line in to Manhattan. Sure, the power line would take up space, but so would the nuclear plant's cooling system.

Or, just turning back on the one we mothballed in Peekskill.

The space heating is the cooling system.
