5 boroughs of NYC

Originally, New York City was confined to Manhattan Island and the surrounding smaller islands that form New York County. But as the City grew northward, it began annexing areas on the mainland and absorbed Westchester County into New York County in 1874 (West Bronx) and 1895 (East Bronx). Consolidation began in 1898, and this territory was organized as the Borough of the Bronx even though it was still part of NY County. In 1914, Bronx County was split from New York County.

The western part of Queens county was consolidated with NY County also in 1898, and became the Borough of Queens. In 1899, the remaining eastern section of Queens County was split off and Nassau County was formed.
