ABOUT THE AREA
Manhattan is one of the 5 boroughs of NYC, and is the heart of NYC and hub of cultural, social, and economic activity. It is actually an island surrounded by the Hudson River, Harlem River and the East River and is named from the Manhattes, the Native American tribe who sold the island to the Dutch in 1626 for roughly $24 in goods. The city was called New Amsterdam by the Dutch, and was later renamed New York by the conquering British. Residents from the other 4 boroughs refer to Manhattan as “The City”.
