CITY OF NEW YORK

Brief History of the Municipality

public expense.

Manhattan Island, the present Borough of Manhattan, was discovered by Henry Hudson on September 11, 1609. In 1613, the first habitations for white men were built by Adrian Block, where 41 Broadway now stands. On May 6, 1626, Peter Minuet, appointed Director-General of New Netherland, purchased Manhattan Island from the Indians for trinkets valued at about twenty-four dollars, and the town with a population of less than 200 was named New Amsterdam.

In

The first wooden church was erected in 1633. Two years later Fort Amsterdam was built on what is now the site of the Custom House. 1642 the first public meeting place was built on the site of 73 Pearl Street. In 1653 a wall was built along what is now Wall Street, as a protection against attack, being extended along Rector Street in 1673.

New Amsterdam, with a population of about 800, was incorporated as a city on February 2, 1653. The first street was paved in 1657, this running between Broad and Whitehall Streets. On March 12, 1664, King Charles II of England granted all the Dutch land in America, covering what is now New York, New Jersey and a part of Connecticut, to his brother James, Duke of York. The city was captured by the English on September 8 of that year and it was then named New York after the Duke of York. Thomas Willett, of Plymouth, was appointed the first Mayor, taking office in June, 1665. On August 9, 1673, the city was recaptured by the Dutch, who named it New Orange, after the Prince of Orange. In November, 1674, New Netherland, including the city of New Orange, was ceded to England, and the province and the city renamed New York.

On December 8, 1683, the city was first divided into wards, each of the six with an alderman. On April 27, 1686, the first charter was granted. The first printing press was set up on April 12, 1693. and on October 16, 1725, the first newspaper in New York was founded. A new city hall was completed at Broad and Wall streets in 1700, this becoming "New Federal Hall," and on April 30, 1789, George Washington there took oath of office as first President of the United States. The first city library was founded in 1754. In 1756 a stage route was started between New York and Philadelphia. In 1762 the streets were first lighted at

On July 9, 1776, in the presence of George Washington, the Declaration of Independence was read to the American troops quartered in New York, near the site now occupied by the City Hall. During the same year construction started on the first waterworks to supply the city through wooden pipes. The English captured the city on September 14, 1776, and it was not until November 25, 1783, that the city below Fourteenth Street was again under the control of the Americans. The final step in the establishment of the first American city government in New York City was completed on February 5, 1784, when Governor George Clinton appointed James Duane as the first Mayor. By 1790 the city extended from the Battery to the lower end of City Hall Park, and its population was 33,131. New York was the capital of the Nation from 1785 to 1790, and the capital of the State until 1797. On August 11, 1807, Robert Fulton's steamboat, the "Clermont, made its trip from New York to Albany in thirty-two hours. In 1832 the first horse railroad in the world started on Fourth Avenue. In 1844 the first uniformed police force in New York City was organized. On May 2, 1865, the first paid fire department was organized. On May 24, 1883. the first bridge to span the East River, the Brooklyn Bridge, was opened. The Statue of Liberty was unveiled on October 24, 1886.

The first excavation for the earliest subway was made on March 24, 1900; it became operative on October 27, 1904. In 1908 the Hudson River tunnels were opened to Jersey City, and on March 30, 1909, the Queensboro Bridge was opened and on December 31 in the same year the Manhattan Bridge was completed. The Holland Tunnel, under the Hudson River, the largest vehicular tunnel in the world, was started October 12, 1920, and completed November 12, 1927. On September 21, 1927, construction was begun on the George Washington Bridge and it was officially opened October 25, 1931.

New York County became Manhattan Borough on Jan. 1, 1898; Kings County became Brooklyn Borough; and that part of New York County just north of the Harlem River (the upper slice of which had been taken from Westchester County) became Bronx Borough; Queens County became Queens Borough; and Richmond County (Staten Island) became Richmond Borough.
