It's pretty common for there to be secondary commercial and business districts in a city.

The most immediate example of this for me is how when you stand on a hill with a good view of Atlanta, you can see four clearly distinct built-up areas all in a row, three of which are within city limits. Downtown Atlanta in particular has lost out because of its northerly competitors.

Those are all still in relatively close distance and I'd argue is just one large business district with multiple cores.

In NYC, you have a lot of residential neighborhoods separating Flushing and Jamacia from the main buisness district (Midtown Manhattan).

Flushing is about eight miles from midtown Manhattan.
