NYC is a good bet for Wall Stree firms and banks using mainframes but the 
mainframes sure aren't in NYC.  Most have move and consolidated in various sub 
of NYC, like NJ.  Several have moved the physical operations overseas.
   
  Rent is just to high in NYC to house computer rooms any longer.
   
  American Express, Fla, AZ. as an example and did that a long time ago.
   
  Volvo, was in Rockleigh, NJ.  move operation mostly to Sweden and Ford 
somewhere.

 Just a WAG, but I'd put NYC first on such a list (Wall Street, et

 No clue where or in what order the rest of the list would contain.

 Nowadays, one possible reason for entities to conceal such information
 is that large data centers might make inviting targets for 
 terrorists.

The greater Washington, D.C., area should probably get a nomination as
