People who want to walk to everything usually forget that part of everything is that bench by the stream with no one around. I need a vista. If I were ever going to live in the city, I'd have to be by the water front or looking over everything.

You're doing it wrong, man. You need to move on up. From my east-facing windows I have a panorama of downtown. From my north/west-facing windows I look over a well manicured graduate school campus, with the Twins stadium beyond that. And I'm high enough that you can see the edges of the Mississippi Valley in the distance. There is no way I would trade that for spending three hours a day in rush our traffic, only to get home to a place where I have to drive some more to get something to eat or find some entertainment.
If it's nature you need, get a cabin.
