  • Abstract
    When people think of New York, they think of Manhattan, and indeed, throughout most of its history, New York was Manhattan Island. Not surprisingly then, many historical technological events belong to Manhattan. However, each of the "Outer Boroughs" of Staten Island, Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx contains at least one site of technological interest.
