Colors are based on brand identity of the NYC Public Transit system, including the Staten Island Ferry, IRD Crosstown Line, IRT Lexington Avenue Line, IRT 7 Avenue Express, and the IRT 7 Train.

A surprisingly historical city: known for early wealth, natural resources, and prideful residents, Staten Island truly is a hidden gem.

Take a deeper dive into the many, many neighborhoods of New York City and see how they got their names, along with some historical nuggets that make each spot unique.

Arguing over neighborhood borders is not unique to New York City, though there is a certain pride taken in doing so in the five boroughs. The intent of this project is moreso to focus on the historical origins of neighborhood names verses the total and complete accuracy on their borders. Multiple sources were summarized to best set the borders for each neighborhood, though it is always accepted that differing opinions will persevere.
