Much of the city’ s heavy industry is located in Brooklyn. The borough is one of the largest manufacturing centers in the United States.
Queens:
Queens was founded in 1645 at Vlissingen(today called Flushing). It is the largest borough in area. Queens is one of the city’ s most popular residential areas. The borough is important because of its concentration of railroads and heavy industry in the Long Island City area. New York City’ s main airports — John F. Kennedy International and La Guardia — are in Queens.
The Bronx::
The Bronx began as Jonas Bronck’ s farm in 1641. The Bronx, the second smallest borough in area, is largely residential , although many industries have grown up near the East and Harlem rivers.
Staten Island:
Staten Island was first called Staaten Eylandt. It began in 1661 with a village called Oude Dorp. This island borough, in New York Bay, was formerly called Richmond. With an area of about 157 square kilometers. Its population is the smallest of those of the five boroughs.
