Bronx, a district to tour

New York City encompasses five very important districts as “NY boroughs”: Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Staten Island. Each one of them has infinite interesting proposals to make and its own personality that differentiates it from one another.

Bronx, one of the five boroughs of New York City, southeastern New York, USA, coextensive with Bronx County, formed in 1912. The Bronx is the northernmost borough of the city. It is separated from Manhattan (to the south and west) by the narrow Harlem River and is further bordered by Westchester County (north), the Hudson River (west), the East River (south), and Long Island Sound (east). The Bronx, the only mainland borough, is connected to Manhattan by a dozen rail bridges and tunnels, and to Queens by the Robert F. Kennedy (formerly Triborough), Bronx-Whitestone, and Throgs Neck bridges. The site was called Keskeskeck by the Indians who sold it in 1639 to the Dutch West India Company. In 1641 Jonas Bronck, a Norseman, bought 500 acres (200 hectares). Soon after, religious dissidents and settlers from New England moved in, encroaching on Dutch territory. The district was part of Westchester County until 1898, when it was incorporated into New York City.
