Description: With the influx of immigrants in the mid-nineteenth century, New York City's diverse urban community divided itself into neighborhoods based on ethnic identity and common experience. While these divisions have faded over the years, the neighborhoods remain a rich reminder of New York's shared history. With vivid color photographs, authentic text, and primary source illustrations offering historical context, this book traces the origins of some of New York City's most popular neighborhoods into the twenty first century. Supports New York City's Grade 2 social studies standard for Unit 2: New York City Over Time 1.1, 1.2, 1.4, 3.2a.
