Scenery/Terrain is the correct location, yes.

Uh, OK. Without more information than that, it's difficult to know
what to say in reply. What do you mean by "not working"? How are
you expanding them? Where are you placing them? How are you telling
FlightGear where to find them? How does FlightGear fail? Does it
provide any error messages? If so, what? If not, have you tried
increasing the level of detail of messages it gives (through the
command line parameters)? Please help us help you.

I'm not sure what you mean by this. If you're asking about ground
scenery like buildings and detailed roads and so forth, you can't.
Where they exist (e.g. the San Francisco bay area), stuff like ground
structures exist because users like you and me have stepped forward
to create them and make them available. Nobody has done this with
NYC, so NYC doesn't have such structures available. This is definitely
an area where users can become contributors to the project; and if it
interests you, I encourage you to jump in!
