New York City, and New Orange, named Big Apple, a town and port on the mouth of the Hudson River, in the southeastern state of New York, in the northeastern US. the largest American city, which includes the Manhattan and Staten Islands, the western parts of Long Island, and a small part of New York's northern and northern part of Manhattan. New York City is actually a collection of numerous sites located in the city's five cities - Manhattan, Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens, and Staten Island - each with its own lifestyle. Moving from one city to another is like traveling from opne country to another. New York is a densely populated city and the most international city in the world. Its urban area extends to the combined parts of New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. Where the Hudson and East rivers are located in one of the world's major ports, New York is the gateway to the North American continent and its favorite exit from the world's oceans. 305 square kilometers (790 square km) Pop.

York
City Character New York is a
multiracial, multicultural, thriving commercial center, crowded with
celebrities, and, in the eyes of many, is the world's most attractive urban
center. No other city has offered as many images as possible to the American
public: Wall Street means finance, Broadway is like a theater, Fifth Avenue is
automatically paired with shopping, Madison Avenue means the advertising
industry, Greenwich Village describes Bohemian lifestyles, Seventh Avenue
Shamni , while Harlem evokes images of Jazz Age, African American ambitions,
and slums. The word tenement reminds us of both the tragedy of urban life and
the high mobility of immigrants.
Its symbol is the Declaration of Independence,but the great city itself is a metaphor, a platform in which Emma Lazaro's “great storm” people of all nations are converted to Americans — and if they live in the city, they become New Yorkers. Two hundred years ago, New York became America's largest and richest city. More than half the people and goods that once entered the United States entered its port, and that commercial river made a lasting difference in city life. New York has always said that it is possible, because it was an urban center that went to something better, a very big city that was very busy recruiting those who stood in the way of progress.
New York - while America's largest city in the country - has thus gained a
reputation as a foreigner, a place where chaos, arrogance, indifference, and
cruelty test the strength of all who enter it.

Location Status City location Parts of New York's marble rock dating back 100 million years ago, but the current state of the city's landscape is largely a result of the recession that marked the end of the Wisconsin Glacial Stage about 10,000 years ago. The massive rocky outcrops of Manhattan's Central Park, the deep-seated drainage of Brooklyn and Queens, and the remaining glacial moraine in parts of the metropolitan area provide silent testimony to the immense power of the ice. Glacial reversal also revealed waterways around the city. The Hudson and East rivers, the Spuyten Duyvil Creek, and the Arthur Kill, are, in fact, the rivers of the Atlantic Ocean, while the Hudson runs north of Troy. Nearly 600 miles [1,000 km] off the coast of New York are locked in a never-ending battle with the sea, as the earth changes and adds new bodies elsewhere. Although the harbor is always wet, the ship's hubs are always filled with river mud and are not very deep with modern deep sea vessels.

South
of the rocky outcrops of Manhattan lies a secure, shallow waters that provide
easy access to the Atlantic Ocean. In 1524 the Italian sailor Giovanni da
Verrazzano was the first European to enter the port, which he called Santa
Margarita, and reported that the hills around the vast expanse of New York Bay
appear to be rich in minerals; more than 90 species of gemstones and 170
minerals have been found in New York City. Verrazzano's bold voyage was
commemorated in 1964, when the world's longest stop bridge was dedicated to
extending the Narrows to the entrance to Upper New York Bay. Climate and plants
and animals The average temperature in January was 31 ° F (0 ° C) and in June
72 ° F (22 ° C), but the recorded temperature ranged from -15 to 106 ° F (-26
to 41 ° C). Because of New York's temperate climate, harbors are relatively
rare. Annual rainfall is 44 inches (1,120 mm).
The flowers and animals of the city are a testament to the rapid changes in the ecosystem set by urban populations. In the former hunting grounds and fishing grounds of several Native American groups, the most common animals today are extinct and the Norwegian rat, both introduced to the city for trade with Europe. There are a wide variety of species still found within the city, including 80 species of fish, a host of birds from the leader's falcon to a dove, and mammals such as raccoon and occasional urban coyote. The wildlife sanctuaries of Jamaica Bay and the Clove Lakes (Staten Island) and Alley Pond (Queens) parks offer a wide variety of wildlife sanctuaries, allowing them to survive in the midst of an unspoilt urban environment.
The plants have enough rainfall but have been reduced and destroyed by the progress of the overflow of the city. A major feature of the city's modern-day plants is their ability to thrive despite the acidic rain and wind that contain large amounts of ozone, automotive emissions, and industrial products. However, two of the city's botanical gardens, one in the Bronx and one in Brooklyn, are well-respected throughout the country, and zoos for all the delightful visitors of all ages. City planning The ancient bedrock provided a solid foundation for hundreds of modern building blocks.

New
York has more of these beautiful buildings than any other city in the world.
Architects may argue about the origin of the modern architecture, but most
agree that Manhattan is where steel-framed buildings are combined with cash to
build a type of architecture where high heights can be achieved; the same name
was coined in the 1880's to describe the state of New York. The first routes
around Manhattan Island followed the animal and Native American routes in
difficult terrain; Broadway still follows one of these routes, crossing north
through the island. The planning of the city was foreign to traders in the 17th
century, and the roads were suddenly approved; only a handful of important
agricultural communities were preserved, and it was not until 1798 that the
city elected a road commissioner. Colonial inequality is still evident in the
narrow streets of Lower Manhattan.
The city's spirit of optimism is evident in the road system adopted in 1811, the grid of blocks, roads, roads, and lots that reach the northern parts of the island. City Hall, now in Manhattan at the time, was so far removed from the work center that its northern front was left unfinished, as few thought it would ever be seen. Although it is often modified in some cases, the rectangular patterns set in Manhattan when they first determine their development paths, and other cities adopted the plan after the construction of Greater New York in 1898. there are pioneer ideas for limited access and extreme crossings. In the 20th century, parking was introduced into the street patterns of all the cities, as East and Ocean parking in Brooklyn, Riverside Drive (Manhattan), Grand Concourse (Bronx), and Queens Boulevard prove it. Despite all its efforts, today's city is famous for its volume of traffic that closes its well-organized road system.
New York City cities New York's administrative building was constructed by the unification of the metropolitan area in January 1898. Following a 19th-century urban war pattern, and largely inspired by the challenge posed by Chicago at its height, modern-day New York was built while Brooklyn, a Westchester metropolitan area called the Bronx, Stenen Island, of Queens district added to Manhattan following a survey. Although the city's population grew from 2 million to 3.4 million, much of the new land was still in the rural areas, and only five of the five streets in the extended city were paved. Five villages, all of which were quickly identified in New York State, became the administrative centers of the municipality.
The
district presidency was designed to maintain “pride and love of place,” and its
activities from 1901 to 1990 included working for the Standards Board, which is
a central financial institution. The district presidents now serve as a source
of concern for the neighbors, the mayor, the mayor, and are responsible for
appointing members of the community boards, the City Planning Commission, and
the Education Board. These officials carry a heavy load of responsibility in
the ongoing New York War between powerful mayors seeking central authorities
and local leaders who wish for independent action. Manhattan More than 30
million tourists visit New York every year, but most of them often see just
over 22.6 square miles (58.5 square km) of Manhattan Island, the smallest city.
Divided by 12 lanes to the north and crossing 220 roads east and west,
Manhattan is easily understood and lasts indefinitely. It is the first New York
City, has the largest collections in the world, and is overcrowded with
cultural centers and places of perpetual descent. Even for people living in
other cities, Manhattan is the “city,” the administrative, commercial, and
financial center of the city and its foundation.
There is no other part of New York where there is a lot of comparisons between rich and poor. The high altitude of Park Avenue and the Upper East Side quickly offers the full streets of Harlem to the north and the abundant bohemian presence of the Lower East Side and Greenwich Village to the south. This vicious modern dichotomy is typical of a 19th-century city, where billions of industrial dwellers lived comfortably on the streets of Fifth Avenue (now heavily converted into cultural centers) away from the influx of immigrants on the Lower East Side (suffering the now revered Tenement Museum).
The Bronx is a city farther north (except for
a small part of Manhattan) that is the only part of New York on the continent.
It was first settled by farmers and then for centuries. Originally bound in
Manhattan only by King’s Bridge across the Spuyten Duyvil Creek, it was the
scene of much controversy during the American Revolution, but later it became a
place where wealthy politicians and businessmen established summer homes.
Towards the end of the 19th century it was a racetrack where the Belmont Stakes
were held until 1889. Railways, additional bridges, and trade gradually bound
the Bronx to the southern city, and in 1874 the towns of Morrisania, West Farms
and Kingsbridge connected to Manhattan.

Raised
railways soon entered two new city wards, and large parks were approved; the
modern city, located 60 square miles [109 sq km] in area, remains one fourth of
the park. When more land from the Bronx was added to New York by the merger of
1898, a modern city was built. Before the underground roads of 1910 it headed
north to facilitate population growth in the former farmland. When the Bronx
was formed in 1914, it had large groups of Italians, Jews, Irish, and
Armenians. Many find employment in community projects, such as those building
parks, the Bronx Zoo, the New York Botanical Garden, or the Jerome Park
Reservoir. Others have worked at a college just north of downtown New York
University, home to the country's first International Hall of Fame (Great
American), expanded the railway system, or built Yankee Stadium (1923), home to
baseball legend Ruth Ruth.
Fordham Road became a major shopping street,
and Grand Concourse became popular as one of the city's most respected
addresses. The village still has the largest number of Art Deco buildings in
the world. An old Broadway song informed Americans that the "Bronx is on
the rise," but few parts of the world have experienced a dramatic decline
in success. For a decade in the mid-1960's, the Bronx became a hotbed of
crime-ridden cities, drug dealers, rebellious landlords, and pressure to accept
the many waves of immigrants. The people of Puerto Rico gained political power
when they elected Herman Badillo as regional president; they later sent him to
the US Congress.
However,
the city's reputation did not stem from the illuminated nationalism but from
fires that burned its buildings and drug wars and gangs that devastated its
young people. Although it was fully connected to the metropolitan area by
railways and bridges such as Robert F. Kennedy (1936; formerly Tororough),
Whitestone (1939), and Tracks Neck (1961), the South Bronx became the fastest
stop. Brooklyn, New York City The densely populated city of New York, Brooklyn
is located about 80 square miles (210 sq km) east of Manhattan on the western
edge of Long Island. The first settlement of the area was occupied by the Dutch
in the 1630's, and the six main agricultural towns - Brooklyn, Flatlands,
Flatbush, New Utrecht, Bushwick, and Gravesend - soon flourished. Combined as
Kings County in 1683, the region grew modestly as an addition to Manhattan.
During the American Revolution, Brooklyn was the scene of the Long Island War
(August 27, 1776). After the British invaded New.
Wives The state of Queens
is building a major American city if it were not part of New York. Its 120
square kilometers (311 square kilometers), more than a third of the city,
accommodates the middle-class people with human settlements, although areas
such as Forest Hills are more common. In colonial times the great religious
liberation war, Flushing Remonstrance (1657), was fought in Queens; it was the
first victory of tolerance needed in the city center. In the 19th century
Queens had several races and two beaches that attracted the rich, and it became
the last resort for New Yorkers who died. Its Calvary Cemetery remains the
largest in the nation, while 7,000 American Civil War veterans are buried in
Cypress Hills on its border with Brooklyn. Long Island Rail Road (1836),
originally intended to shorten the voyage from New York to the Boston ferry,
traversing vastly arid land.
That situation changed
after 1870 when the great cities were founded by William Englehardt Steinway
(piano) and Conrad Poppenhusen (rubber); the recent development of the Newtown
Creek area brought with it a heavy industry and attracted many migrant workers
to the region. Stenen Island With the geographical division of the Upper and
Lower New York Bays, Staten Island was removed 8 miles from Manhattan by boat
and a mile from Brooklyn across the Narrows. Its 60 square kilometers (155
square kilometers) is still relatively sparse, a large part of the city's rural
area, even if it is the fastest growing province in the province. When the
British conquered New York in 1664, they decided that Staten Island would
remain part of the province even though it was close to New Jersey. One hundred
years later, in 1776, British forces began to invade the island. After
independence, the town of Richmond (later Staten Island) occupied fortresses to
protect New York's entrance, the segregated stations of sick immigrants, the
homes of elderly sailors and orphans, and the Manhattan freight railway trains.
When its voters chose to be part of the big city, the population was over
65,000.
After 1900 a citizens'
center and council hall were built in St. Petersburg. Real estate agents have
tried to start appearing when Richmond was connected to the city, but hopes
were dashed when full access to the railway failed to materialize. Until the
1930s the city experienced slow industrial growth and population growth, and
soon after Goethals (1928), Outerbridge Crossing (1928), and Bayonne (1931)
bridges were built when the suspension was completed. The construction of the
Verrazano-Narrows Bridge (1964) eventually opened up the town for rapid growth
and made it an active part of city life. Truck farming is over and factories
are closed on the island, but residents have managed to maintain the integrity
of their nearly 3,000-acre park, Greenbelt, which is the largest center in
major cities. Planning a modern big city Prior to the creation of Greater New
York, city leaders addressed the needs of citizens less systematically.
The 19th-century
administration built a road grid, controlled the port and relocation, provided
water and sewers, authorized lanes, and built parks. No one pretended that
Manhattan provided a picture of logical planning, but with a combined
population of more than three million, a more orderly approach was needed.
Uncontrolled buildings and horrific housing were among the major concerns of developing
intellectuals, with their first success being Tenement House Law (1901) which
required the installation of fire escape and toilets in existing
“old-fashioned” frameworks. City officials oversaw the construction of the “new
law” —a six-story, multistory building, cooking area, hot water, with no
windows without windows - and within 15 years 200,000 apartments were built.
Progresssivism's greatest achievements were 1916, the first attempt by any city
to control overcrowding, to control land use, and to ensure light and air on
the streets by rebuilding buildings. By then, Manhattan was already famous for
its huge buildings, and its height had risen from 11 “stupid” towers of Tower
Building (1889) to 20 of Flatiron (1902) and eventually to an unprecedented 792
(241)-meter feet ) Woolworth building, "commercial cathedral church"
(1913). The new boundary code authorized the relocation of the building to
allow daylight to reach the streets and altered the construction of future
construction, and under its boundaries the Chrysler (1930) and Empire State
(1931) buildings were completed. Those buildings still have two world-famous
statues. After World War II, a “crystal path” was erected along Park Avenue,
now called the heart of the 20th century architecture. In 1961 the design code
was changed to encourage developers to add community resources to their
building plans to restore diversity. The review did not appear to be a success,
and in 1990 the City Planning Commission established new construction districts
in an effort to reduce flooding in a new building in Manhattan.
People Racial and religious differences In a city that embraces change as its mainstay, New York's migratory population remains a phenomenon. At the end of the 20th century, representatives of some 200 ethnic groups were counted among its people. While people of European descent still make up one third of the population, Hispanics accounts for about one third, and African Americans about one quarter. The fastest growing segment is Asia, rising from a small part of the 1970s to more than one-tenth in the late 1990's. The Dominicans were very large immigrants during the last decade of the 20th century, but they were closely followed by the Russians and the Chinese, who were eager to “arrive.” The Statue of Liberty, more than a hundred years dedicated to the port (1886), continues to be the most powerful symbol in New York, as it welcomes newcomers to the city's “gold gate.” The dedication of the first Cathedral of St. Patrick between Mott and Mulberry Street in 1815 showed the prominence of the Irish people. In 1844, 15 circuits served over 80,000 Roman Catholics in Ireland, and it became clear even before the Great Depression of 1845 to 494 that New York had become Ireland. More than 24,000 Germans were also living in Manhattan, an increasing number following the failed revolution of the 1840s.
Irish workers
had to deal with warning signs of “No need for Ireland in action,” and their
adverse conditions quickly created one of New York's most famous slums, the
Five Point Region. The Germans, especially Protestants or Jews, were in the
middle and probably had a little simpler admiration; they formed the
Kleindeutschland ("Little Germany") east of Bowery. So much so that
foreign pressure was so great that Castle Garden, near the Battery, was
converted into a reception area, a role he played from 1855 to 1890. During the
American Civil War, the Irish, the Germans, and other ethnic groups numbered
more than half of the city's foreign-born people. Internal migration The
transforming power is often overlooked in New York’s ever-present intriguing
inner circle. Over the years a large portion of America's most prominent and
ambitious Americans have been drawn to Manhattan.
New
York relocated Boston as a national cultural center back in the middle of the
19th century, as newspapers, magazines and their artistic freedom advertised a
different ideology. By 1900 both Mark Twain and William Dean Howells had found
a need to settle in New York, and Greenwich Village emerged as a place of
conflict before World War I. Modern recording, Beat poems, and Abstract
Expressionism are only the beginning of the 20th century. an artistic movement
that traces their origins to the Village Square. After 1900 a large group of
internally displaced persons were African Americans fleeing the borders of life
in the rural South.
New York was one of their favorite places, and Harlem's growth as a “Black metropolis” was an unintended consequence. In the first decade of the 20th century, the Afro-American Realty Company began renting homes to African Americans in what was once a predominantly Jewish area, and the churches they visited in the city quickly moved north. Increased racial and economic animosity led to white immigration, although East Harlem remained largely Italian, and by 1930 more than 200,000 African Americans settled in Harlem. Their artistic skills led to the rejuvenation of Harlem, and their artists were leaders of the Jazz Age, but the fact remained that the Harlem under their control became the largest slums in the city. The Great Depression wasted on economic opportunities; High taxes forced the division of apartments; and well-known rural health diseases wreak havoc on the impoverished community.
Harlem
endured a long decline where it did not appear until the 1990s. Economics Early
industries The New York City emblem, adopted in 1686, includes a beaver and a
barrel of flour, pictures of the first major phase of Manhattan's economic
history. The new Amsterdam was important to the Dutch because it offered access
to the most important wool trade on the continent. One of the richest men in
19th-century New York was John Jacob Astor, whose money was based on wool
before he became a real estate agent. After the British conquest in 1664, the
city acquired the power of milling and packaging of grain and exported its
flour to all world markets. Merchant revenues increased dramatically as
commercial, both legal and smuggling, became the lifeblood of New York. Any
threat to the prosperity of the city was brutally treated, and William Kidd's
conversion from independence to corruption led him to the stake (London) in
1701. Shipping and shipping Shipping business is always visible in New York.
Its Dutch and English merchant class ruled the colonial assembly and after 1756
controlled the annual wage grant given to the emperor. A group of 20 merchants
organized the world's first commercial chamber (1768) at a time when small
production centers - textiles, timber processing, ropes, and sails - were
commonplace. With the rapid conquest of the British colonies during the
American Revolution, the city filled the Caribbean, European and coastal ports
and its ships within a decade of independence.
New Yorkers sent the Chinese Emperor on his first historic voyage to East Asia in 1784, and Manhattan was the world leader in all exports and imports in the late 1790's. When the steamboat of founder Robert Fulton, Clermont, made its first trip to Albany in 32 hours in 1807, it changed transport. New York has introduced the first planned shipment to Europe, and its growing fleet builds all sorts of ships from port lines to inland ships to passenger ships crossing at sea. Walt Whitman was impressed by the "long masts" that turned Soo and when its traders entered the cotton trade the whole nation's trade plummeted in the harbor. Several financial fears in the 19th
century could not prevent the city from dominating the national financial
markets. Investors and banks from the metropolitan area have provided much of
the capital to support industrialization in the United States.
New
York's influence was so great that even the world's largest firms found it best
to place their headquarters there even though - like Carnegie Steel, American
Tobacco, and Standard Oil - the focus of their production was on the same.
Industrial and commercial development Shipping and funding ensured a global
presence in New York, but production provided jobs for its full population. A
number of small businesses were concentrated in Manhattan in the 1850's, and
clothing, furniture, piano, cigars, and many other products they created
improved the city's exports. By the middle of the century, New York was a
printing center in the United States with over 1,000 facilities; during 1865-85
the number of magazines printed in the city doubled to 3,300. The influx of
skilled Jewish immigrants transformed the already powerful textile industry
into a recruitment agency, employing about half of all urban workers in 1910.
Thus,
capital connectivity, cheap services, access to resources, trading system, and
travel facilities make New York an ideal place for business. It has rapidly
developed advertising, insurance and legal services to address the needs of its
growing manufacturing sector. Business Center At the beginning of the 20th
century, New York was the headquarters of more than two-thirds of the 100
American companies, and its 25,000 factories produced several hundred
industrial products. It led the nation to total factory workers, factory
number, monetary value, and product value. New York held its leadership
position for three more generations and provided nearly one million industrial
jobs in the 1950's. In 1960-75 the city lost more than 600,000 jobs, as its
former economy collapsed and there was a period of detail. Banking and finance
services became the new engine of development - promoted by the traditional
printing and marketing sectors of the economy - while white-skilled computer
workers replaced many former blue collar workers. Although much has been done
with the movement of textile production in New York, it is still the city's
leading industry, and sweatshop conditions commemorating the early 1900's are
still present in small factories in the Bronx and Queens. Despite all these
changes, the metropolitan area is home to more than one-fifth of Fortune 500
companies.
1970s
represent a low point in New York; its national reputation plummeted as the
government suffered a catastrophic collapse. High rents, traffic congestion,
heat, and crime have led to the relocation of businesses and middle class and
after the city began the reconstruction process. Industrial parks, where
businesses are provided with cheaper money, better services, and security, are
authorized to address this problem, and large amounts of tax money were levied
on those companies remaining in the city. The NYSE even threatened to leave,
but in the late 1990's it agreed to stay in Manhattan and build a new facility.
The
harbor, in a state of disrepair and corruption, began to change its port of
delivery, pull up deep stations, and arrange for direct rail links between
Manhattan and Brooklyn. Old pillars were demolished or converted into other materials,
such as recreation centers. Management and Social Conditions Government New
York City is governed by a mayor who selects heads of departments and judges of
criminal courts and prepares an annual budget. Mayors have great powers but are
always involved in legal battles with 51 members of the City Council. Both the
mayor and members of the council serve a maximum of three years. In general,
since the Fiorello La Guardia in the 1930's, mayors have often led their
parties and have been more powerful than other party leaders.
Two
themes remain central to New York's administrative history: the conflict
between city leadership and the supreme authority of the state in the struggle
for local government, and the municipality's desire to contain the tendency to
devolve power to its subordinates. In the Dutch colonial period, the director
general of New Netland was a city dictator who ruled both provinces and the
burgh, but after 1664 the governor of the English province called a mayor. In
the 1680's Emperor Thomas Dongan gave New York its first municipal manifesto
and approved the election of aldermen, but he retained the right to appoint a
mayor, recorder, clerk and sheriff. Functional control remained in the hands of
the authorities until it was overthrown by city officials after 1740. Despite
the various authorities, the city grew rapidly, and by the 1730's it had two
newspapers, an almshouse, a night watch, and a network of volunteer
firefighters. New York City Education Primary and secondary programs Public funding for education was obtained after 1795, higher education The city has more
than 80 colleges, including nationally renowned institutions such as Columbia
(1754), New York (1831), Fordham (1841), and the universities of Rockefeller
(1901) and Cooper Union (1859). Its largest municipal program, City University of
New York (CUNY), has more than 20 units and traces its origins to City College
(1847).
However,
the introduction of open admissions in the 1970s brought high school diseases
to the college system. CUNY's strong academic culture quickly changed the
so-called "Correction U," and since the late 1990's the university
administration had been trying to strengthen the baccalaureate. Even the most
selective colleges find it necessary to develop students' basic skills. Despite
these difficulties, New York remains one of the university's largest cities
and, from the Ivy League to the public college, its streets are full of student
life. Cultural Life Truly like the wall below Manhattan the cultural attraction
of New York. For more than a century, talented but unknown artists and
ambassadors from all parts of the world and the nation have drawn to a city
that they consider to be their spiritual home. The constant flow of the
cultural elite flows towards the city and creates an electric atmosphere. In
almost every field of art - theater, music, dance, art, literature, fashion,
film, print and sports - this city is “a place to go” to see if you can
“succeed”.
There
is no environment that offers rigorous testing of human abilities. Statistics
from various books such as Washington Irving, Herman Melville, Walt Whitman, O.
Henry, members of the Algonquin Round Table, Rex Stout, and Ed McBain (Evan
Hunter) have all tried to explain the attraction and dangers of the city; all
success failed, to some extent. In the 19th century Manhattan was home to the
Hudson River Art School, and Tenth Street Studio in Greenwich Village and its
surroundings created a national concept. Willa Cather, who grew up in Nebraska,
came to write West on Bank Street in the Village, while Jackson Pollock came
from the West to create Abstract Expressionism and help change the direction of
modern art. But perhaps the biggest evidence of New York's powerful attraction
is the millions of visitors every year who feel its vibration, diversity, and
power.
Whether
an artist, a visitor, or a resident, they all seem to be united in the belief
that New York, “as Joan Didion's organization,” is a nation of unparalleled
love, a mysterious mixture of all love, money and power, a bright and immortal
dream. ” New York City Art Since then the 1890s Broadway has ruled as the
"Great White Way," the country's largest theater. New York produces,
distributes, and consumes official dramas and popular music that Americans want
and thousands of other shows come with only true supporters. The Theater is New
York's "most illegal," sometimes near death and sometimes
revitalized, and Variety (1905) is a news magazine that informs the world about
its life. Off-city and Off-Off Broadway venues are where theatrical trials
teach playwrights, actors, dancers and directors. In the last decades of the
20th century, new large sections of Times Square, large buildings, and the
sudden 42th Street attracted new audiences, and rising ticket prices were
showing widespread interest. For those who want to trade, Manhattan also offers
free Shakespeare in Central Park, and low-end tickets for current products are
always available. In every city the local teams offer more games than anyone
can attend.
History
City of colonies As all schoolchildren know, Europe's desire to open up trade
with the East encouraged the exploration that found the New World. Giovanni da
Verrazzano (1524) and Henry Hudson (1609) were part of that long struggle, and
they were among the first Europeans to visit and explore New York's vast
harbor. The main outcome of Hudson's trip, as well as his report of strong
resilience near the beautiful farm, was the decision of the Dutch West India
Company to establish a trading post on the southern coast of Manna-hata Island;
in 1626 a place called New Amsterdam was established. It was not the first
Dutch settlement in North America, but the benefits of its location made it
even more important. In May 1626 Peter Minuit arrived with orders to secure the
land. He soon negotiated a 1,000-year real estate agreement, buying the
property from a group of Native Americans who may not have commercial property
worth as much as 60 guilders (converted to the famous $ 24).
Minuit
and his subsequent executives knew that increasing Dutch access to wool and
trade was their main occupation, and commerce accelerated the development of
the city. In 1638 the new emperor reported that a quarter of all the buildings
