Places to see in ( Bronx - USA )
The Bronx is a borough of New York City. It's known for Yankee Stadium, the home field of the New York Yankees baseball team. Dating from 1899, the vast Bronx Zoo houses hundreds of species of animals. Nearby, the sprawling New York Botanical Garden features a landmark greenhouse with rainforest and cactus displays. By the Hudson River, Wave Hill is a landscaped public garden with wooded paths and a cultural center.
The Bronx - sometimes abbreviated as BX in the city, and nicknamed The Boogie Down - with a population of 1,455,444 (2015 Est), is the only one of the five New York City boroughs that is mainly on the mainland of the United States, and not on an island (there are smaller adjacent islands that are part of the Bronx, and also an extremely small portion of Manhattan, called Marble Hill, lies on the mainland). The Bronx was originally part of Westchester County but was gradually annexed by New York City. The Bronx was completely incorporated into the city in 1898.
The Bronx is the only borough with the word “The” commonly associated with its name. That’s because in the early 1600’s, a Swedish settler named Jonas Bronck bought the land from the Native Americans who occupied the territory at the time. Whenever other land owners in the area wanted to travel to that area they would call it “The Bronck’s Land”, after his family name. At first he planned to use the land to grow tobacco crops, but it had a marshy terrain and hills, and therefore couldn’t grow anything on it.
The Bronx has a strong character all its own. It is the birthplace of rap/hip hop music and home to one of the country's most storied professional baseball teams, the New York Yankees, also known as the Bronx Bombers. Many ethnic groups have called the Bronx home over the years. Arthur Avenue is still a center of Italian American culture in New York, and many claim it has a more authentic feel than Manhattan's Little Italy. The South Bronx is more of a struggling area, but is the center of Puerto Rican culture and life. University Heights and Morris Heights are largely Dominican neighborhoods, while Woodlawn maintains a large population of Irish immigrants.
While the southern and central Bronx are mostly comprised of apartment buildings and densely built, the physical environment of the Bronx is more varied than what is normally portrayed in the popular media. For instance, Riverdale is a residential neighborhood of mostly detached single family homes located on bluffs overlooking the Hudson River. It looks more like a quiet suburb in The Bronx. Bronx Park and Van Cortlandt Park are two large and notably tranquil green spaces. City Island, located in Long Island Sound but officially part of the Bronx reminds people more of a small New England fishing village and is worth a visit. And there is a traditional downtown area called The Hub at 149 St. and Third Avenue. While not as large or extensive as the downtown area of major city, a lot of stores are in that location and it is more than just a neighborhood shopping district.

The oldest house of New York City - (is older than you think)
New York City can trace back its roots to the free and liberal city of Amsterdam in the 17th century. The Wyckoff House is the only house in New York City that is from that period, when the Republic of the Netherlands ruled part of North America.
The house is one of the most tangible reminders of a period of American history that has largely been forgotten. New Amsterdam (1625-1664) was a colony in which people from all over the world used trade to make something better of themselves.
New Netherland Now is a project that wants to shine a light on this period of American history, which has only recently been uncovered in its true detail by historians. It shows an alternative origin story for the United States full of inspiring lessons and dire warnings.

The Bronx: Portrait of a Borough
The Bronx: Portrait of a borough
A documentary by Christian Papesch
The Bronx is infamous for being one of the poorest Congressional Districts in the United States. In no other county of the 62 in the state of New York is the unemployment rate as high, and the average income as low, as in New York City's fourth-largest borough.
Ismael Betancourt Jr. who received his B.S. from Columbia University, his MBA from the Harvard University Graduate School of Business and his MA in Political Science from the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, founded the Bronx Transformation Project last year. Its goal is to facilitate cooperation, trade, integration and development among and between the different cultural communities in and beyond the borders of Bronx.
For his documentary, The Bronx, IPS correspondent Christian Papesch visited Betancourt, his borough and its people. He met a teacher from Puerto Rico, an Imam from West Africa and the Catholic editor of an Islamic newspaper. And he portrays a district that is multicultural, self-confident and far from being as pessimistic as its statistics may suggest.

Driving Downtown - Bronx Avenue 4K - New York City USA
Driving Downtown Streets - Third Avenue - Bronx New York City NY USA - Episode 51.
Starting Point: .
The South Bronx is an area of the New York City borough of the Bronx.
Revitalization and Current Concerns
Beginning in the late 1980s, parts of the South Bronx started to experience urban renewal with rehabilitated and brand new residential structures, including both subsidized multifamily town homes and apartment buildings.[29] The Bright Temple A.M.E. Church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[30] Over 1 billion US dollars were spent on rebuilding the area through the 1990s, with 19,000 apartments having been refurbished and more than 4,500 new houses having been built for the working class. More than fifty abandoned apartment buildings on the Major Deegan Expressway and the Cross Bronx Expressway were renovated for residential use. Over 26,500 people moved into the area.[20] On Charlotte Street, prefabricated ranch-style homes were built in the area in 1985,[31] and the area had changed so significantly that the Bronx borough historian could not locate where Carter had stopped to survey the scene. As of 2004, homes on the street were worth up to a million dollars.[28]
The Bronx is the northernmost of the five boroughs of New York City, within the U.S. state of New York.
The Bronx contains one of the five poorest Congressional Districts in the United States, the 15th, but its wide diversity also includes affluent, upper-income and middle-income neighborhoods such as Riverdale, Fieldston, Spuyten Duyvil, Schuylerville, Pelham Bay, Pelham Gardens, Morris Park and Country Club.[10][11] The Bronx, particularly the South Bronx, saw a sharp decline in population, livable housing, and the quality of life in the late 1960s and the 1970s, culminating in a wave of arson. Since then the communities have shown significant redevelopment starting in the late 1980s before picking up pace from the 1990s until today.
About a quarter of the Bronx's area is open space,[5] including Woodlawn Cemetery, Van Cortlandt Park, Pelham Bay Park, the New York Botanical Garden and the Bronx Zoo in the borough's north and center. These open spaces are situated primarily on land deliberately reserved in the late 19th century as urban development progressed north and east from Manhattan.
The name Bronx originated with Jonas Bronck, who established the first settlement in the area as part of the New Netherland colony in 1639.[6][7][8] The native Lenape were displaced after 1643 by settlers. In the 19th and 20th centuries, the Bronx received many immigrant groups as it was transformed into an urban community, first from various European countries (particularly Ireland, Germany and Italy) and later from the Caribbean region (particularly Puerto Rico, Jamaica and the Dominican Republic), as well as African American migrants from the southern United States.[9] This cultural mix has made the Bronx a wellspring of both Latin music and hip hop.
Revitalization
In 1997, the Bronx was designated an All America City by the National Civic League, acknowledging its comeback from the decline of the mid-century.[65] In 2006, The New York Times reported that construction cranes have become the borough's new visual metaphor, replacing the window decals of the 1980s in which pictures of potted plants and drawn curtains were placed in the windows of abandoned buildings.[66] The borough has experienced substantial new building construction since 2002. Between 2002 and June 2007, 33,687 new units of housing were built or were under way and $4.8 billion has been invested in new housing. In the first six months of 2007 alone total investment in new residential development was $965 million and 5,187 residential units were scheduled to be completed. Much of the new development is springing up in formerly vacant lots across the South Bronx.[67]
Sports
The Bronx is the home of the New York Yankees of Major League Baseball.

Driving Downtown - Bronx Little Italy 4K - New York City USA
Driving Downtown Neighborhoods - Little Italy - Bronx New York City NY USA - Episode 8.
Starting Point: Arthur Avenue - .
Arthur Avenue is a street in the Belmont section of the Bronx, New York City's northernmost borough. It was once the heart of the Bronx's Little Italy. Little Italy generally refers to Arthur Avenue and East 187th Street.[1] Although the historical and commercial center of Little Italy is Arthur Avenue itself, the area stretches across East 187th Street from Arthur Avenue to Prospect Avenue, and is similarly lined with delis, bakeries, cafes and various Italian merchants. Unlike the ''Little Italy'' neighborhood in Manhattan, which has become a major tourist destination, the Bronx's ''Little Italy'' is considered ''The real Little Italy'' due to its Italian immigrant heritage which dates back to the 1950s.
The Bronx is the northernmost of the five boroughs of New York City, within the U.S. state of New York.
The Bronx contains one of the five poorest Congressional Districts in the United States, the 15th, but its wide diversity also includes affluent, upper-income and middle-income neighborhoods such as Riverdale, Fieldston, Spuyten Duyvil, Schuylerville, Pelham Bay, Pelham Gardens, Morris Park and Country Club.[10][11] The Bronx, particularly the South Bronx, saw a sharp decline in population, livable housing, and the quality of life in the late 1960s and the 1970s, culminating in a wave of arson.

New York – often called New York City or the City of New York to distinguish it from the State of New York, of which it is a part – is the most populous city in the United States and the center of the New York metropolitan area, the premier gateway for legal immigration to the United States[8][9][10] and one of the most populous urban agglomerations in the world.[11] A global power city,[12] New York exerts a significant impact upon commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment. Home to the headquarters of the United Nations,[13] New York is an important center for international diplomacy[14] and has been described as the cultural and financial capital of the world.[15][16][17][18][19]
紐約（英語：New York）是美國人口最多的城市，世界最大的城市之一，是紐約都會區的核心。它經常被稱為紐約市（New York City，官方名稱為「The City of New York」），以與其所在的紐約州相區分。逾一個世紀以來，紐約在商業和金融的方面發揮巨大的全球影響力。紐約是一座世界級城市，直接影響着全球的經濟、金融、媒體、政治、教育、娛樂與時尚界。聯合國總部也位於紐約市[7]，因此紐約也被認為是世界外交的重要中心[8]，也被稱作世界文化之都[9][10]。
紐約位於美國大西洋海岸的東北部，坐擁世界上最大的天然港口之一[11]。該市有五個行政區，同時每一個區也各自是紐約州的一個縣[12]。這五個行政區——曼哈頓區、皇后區、布魯克林區、布朗克斯區及史泰登島區於1898年被合併為一個市[13]。在人口方面，紐約也是全美國人口最密集的重要城市[14]，2012年估計約有8,336,697人[15]居住於302.64平方英里（783.8平方公里）的土地上[6]。紐約都市區在全美的大都市統計區中也高居第一，人口達到1980萬[16]，同時也是全美最大的聯合統計區的一部分，在大區中人口達到2340萬[17]。在語言和人口族群方面，紐約也是最為多元化的城市[18][19]，在此使用的語言達到800種[20][21]，而在2005年，有36%的人口是非美國出生的。

Queens is the largest in area, the second largest in population, and the easternmost of the five boroughs of New York City. The borough is coextensive with Queens County, an administrative division of New York state, in the United States.
Located on the western portion of Long Island, Queens is home to two of the three major New York City area airports, JFK International Airport and LaGuardia Airport. It is also the location of the New York Mets baseball team, the US Open tennis tournament, Flushing Meadows Park, Kaufman Astoria Studios, and Silvercup Studios.
As of the 2005 American Community Survey, immigrants comprise 47.6% of Queens residents.[1] With a population of 2.3 million it is the second most populous borough in New York City (behind Brooklyn) and the tenth most populous county in the United States. It is also the nation's fourth-most-densely populated county (after the counties covering Manhattan, Brooklyn and the Bronx).[2] The 2.3 million figure is the highest historical population for the borough.[3] Were each borough an independent city, Brooklyn and Queens would be the third and fourth largest cities (respectively) after Los Angeles and Chicago.

Queens was established in 1683 as one of the original 12 counties of New York and was supposedly named for the Queen consort, Catherine of Braganza (1638--1705), the Portuguese princess who married King Charles II of England in 1662.[6][7]
The borough is considered one of the more suburban boroughs of New York City. Neighborhoods in central Queens (except those situated along Queens Boulevard and the neighborhoods of Flushing and Jamaica), southern Queens, and eastern Queens have a look and feel similar to the bordering suburbs of western Nassau County. In its northwestern section, however, Queens is home to many urban neighborhoods and several central business districts. Long Island City, on the Queens' waterfront across from Manhattan, is the site of the Citicorp Building, the tallest skyscraper in New York City outside of Manhattan, and the tallest building on geographic Long Island
