In 1664 the colony was captured by British fleet under the Duke of York and renamed New York. In the 18th century New York grew into the largest city of the USA.

2 New York is difficult to describe. You can say anything you like about it and always be right; if you listen to different people talking about it, they can each describe a different town. For some, it's a centre of art, music and theatre; for others, a city of finance and politics. First of all, New York is the greatest seaport in the USA. More than half the trade of the USA goes through the city. It is also a great financial centre where "money-making" is the main law of life. It is the symbol of big business and its Wall Street has become a nickname for big monopolies all over the world. Economic and financial power of the US is concentrated in the sky-scrapers of Wall Street, in the world's exchange, in the banks, among them the oldest in the city. The Bank of New York was founded in 1784. New York is the leading textile centre of the country and its clothes industry. It has a considerable printing industry and many book-shops. It is also undoubtedly one of the centres of social and spiritual life of America.

3 New York includes five boroughs: Manhattan, the Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn and Richmond The population of New York now is 8million people - 16 million if you include the suburbs and another four million come to the city to work here but live elsewhere. Among the inhabitants of York one can meet people of almost all nations. The citizens speak seventy-five different languages. It is even called "Modern Babylon".

4. New York is a city of striking social contrasts. It is a place where most millionaires live and at the same time a greater proportion of New Yorkers live at a lower level than the average for the US.
