New York covers 54,556 square miles (141,300 km2) and ranks as the 27th largest state by size.[2] The Great Appalachian Valley dominates eastern New York, while Lake Champlain is the chief northern feature of the valley, which also includes the Hudson River flowing southward to the Atlantic Ocean. The rugged Adirondack Mountains, with vast tracts of wilderness, lie west of the valley.Most of the southern part of the state is on the Allegheny Plateau, which rises from the southeast to the Catskill Mountains. The western section of the state is drained by the Allegheny River and rivers of the Susquehanna and Delaware systems. The Delaware River Basin Compact, signed in 1961 by New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and the federal government, regulates the utilization of water of the Delaware system. The highest elevation in New York is Mount Marcy in the Adirondacks.[4]New York's borders touch (clockwise from the west) two Great Lakes (Erie and Ontario, which are connected by the Niagara River); the provinces of Ontario and Quebec in Canada; Lake Champlain; three New England states (Vermont, Massachusetts, and Connecticut); the Atlantic Ocean, and two Mid-Atlantic States, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. In addition, Rhode Island shares a water border with New York. New York is the only state that touches both the Great Lakes and the Atlantic Ocean.In contrast with New York City's urban atmosphere, the vast majority of the state is dominated by farms, forests, rivers, mountains, and lakes. New York's Adirondack Park is the largest state park in the United States. It is larger than the Yellowstone, Yosemite, Grand Canyon, Glacier and Olympic National Parks combined.[13] New York established the first state park in the United States at Niagara Falls in 1885. Niagara Falls, on the Niagara River as it flows from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario, is a popular attraction.The Hudson River begins at Lake Tear of the Clouds and flows south through the eastern part of the state without draining Lakes George or Champlain. Lake George empties at its north end into Lake Champlain, whose northern end extends into Canada, where it drains into the Richelieu and then the St. Lawrence Rivers. Four of New York City's five boroughs are on three islands at the mouth of the Hudson River: Manhattan Island; Staten Island; and Long Island, which contains Brooklyn and Queens on its western end.Upstate and downstate are often used informally to distinguish New York City or its greater metropolitan area from the rest of New York state. The placement of a boundary between the two is a matter of great contention.[14] Unofficial and loosely defined regions of Upstate New York include the Southern Tier, which often includes the counties along the border with Pennsylvania,[15] and the North Country, which can mean anything from the strip along the Canadian border to everything north of the Mohawk River.[16]Climate Main article: Climate of New York Lake-effect snow is a major contributor to snowfall totals in western New York. In general, New York has a humid continental climate, though under the K�0�2ppen climate classification, New York City has a humid subtropical climate.[17] Weather in New York is heavily influenced by two continental air masses: a warm, humid one from the southwest and a cold, dry one from the northwest.The winters are long and cold in the Plateau Divisions of the state. In the majority of winter seasons, a temperature of �6�113 °F (�6�125 °C) or lower can be expected in the northern highlands (Northern Plateau) and 5 °F (�6�115 °C) or colder in the southwestern and east-central highlands (Southern Plateau). The summer climate is cool in the Adirondacks, Catskills and higher elevations of the Southern Plateau.The New York City/Long Island area and lower portions of the Hudson Valley have rather warm summers by comparison, with some periods of high, uncomfortable humidity. The remainder of New York State enjoys pleasantly warm summers, marred by only occasional, brief intervals of sultry conditions. Summer daytime temperatures usually range from the upper 70s to mid 80s °F (25 to 30 °C), over much of the state.New York ranks 46th among the 50 states in the amount of greenhouse gases generated per person. This efficiency is primarily e to the state's higher rate of mass transit use.[18]Monthly Normal High and Low Temperatures For Various New York Cities[19](Fahrenheit)City Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Albanymax

�6�16Converted from Fahrenheit data (above)State parks See also: List of New York state parks and New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation Two major parks in the state are the Adirondack Park and Catskill Park. New York has many state parks and two major forest preserves. Adirondack Park, roughly the size of the state of Vermont and the largest state park in the United States, was established in 1892 and given state constitutional protection to remain "forever wild" in 1894. The thinking that led to the creation of the Park first appeared in George Perkins Marsh's Man and Nature, published in 1864. Marsh argued that deforestation could lead to desertification; referring to the clearing of once-lush lands surrounding the Mediterranean, he asserted "the operation of causes set in action by man has brought the face of the earth to a desolation almost as complete as that of the moon."The Catskill Park was protected in legislation passed in 1885,[20] which declared that its land was to be conserved and never put up for sale or lease. Consisting of 700,000 acres (2,800 km2) of land,[20] the park is a habitat for bobcats, minks and fishers. There are some 400 black bears living in the region. The state operates numerous campgrounds and there are over 300 miles (480 km) of multi-use trails in the Park.The Montauk Point State Park boasts the 1797 Montauk Lighthouse, commissioned under President George Washington, which is a major tourist attraction on the easternmost tip of Long Island. Hither Hills park offers camping and is a popular destination with surfcasting sport fishermen.

I 對不起,選的文章長了點.但是介紹紐約只能是長的.
Introction
New York (city), the largest city in the United States, the home of the United Nations, and the center of global finance, communications, and business. New York City is unusual among cities because of its high residential density, its extraordinarily diverse population, its hundreds of tall office and apartment buildings, its thriving central business district, its extensive public transportation system, and its more than 400 distinct neighborhoods. The city』s concert houses, museums, galleries, and theaters constitute an ensemble of cultural richness rivaled by few cities. In 2000 the population of the city of New York was 8,008,278; the population of the metropolitan region was 21,199,865.
Located in the southeastern part of New York State just east of northern New Jersey, the city developed at the point where the Hudson and Passaic rivers mingle with the waters of the Atlantic Ocean and Long Island Sound. The harbor consists of the Upper Bay (an arm of the Atlantic Ocean) as well as the East River and the various waterways that border the city. Its harbor is one of the largest and finest in the world and is ice-free in all seasons.
New York has a temperate climate with annual precipitation of 1,200 mm (47 in) per year. The temperature ranges between 41°C (106° F) and –24° C (–11° F), but the Atlantic Ocean tends to moderate weather extremes in the city. It is about the same latitude as Naples, Italy. Although the Dutch founded the city in 1624 and called it Fort Amsterdam and then New Amsterdam, the English captured the settlement in 1664 and renamed it New York, after the Duke of York, who later became James II of England.
II
New York City and Its Metropolitan Area
Unlike most American cities, which make up only a part of a particular county, New York is made up of five separate counties, which are called boroughs. Originally the city included only the borough of Manhattan, located on an island between the Hudson and East rivers. In 1898 a number of surrounding communities were incorporated into the city as the boroughs of Queens, Brooklyn, the Bronx and Staten Island. The Bronx is the only borough on the mainland of the United States. Manhattan and Staten Island are surrounded by water, while Queens and Brooklyn are part of Long Island.
A
Queens
Queens is the largest of the five boroughs. Covering 282.9 sq km (109.2 sq mi) at the western end of Long Island, Queens is separated from Brooklyn by Newtown Creek and from the rest of the city by the East River and Long Island Sound. It stretches to the Atlantic Ocean on the south and borders Nassau County on the east. It is overwhelmingly residential and is probably one of the most ethnically diverse communities in the world. In 2000 Queens had 2,229,379 residents and was second in population only to Brooklyn among the five boroughs.
The neighborhoods of Queens have a strong sense of indivial identity. Some are heavily instrial, like Long Island City, Maspeth, and College Point; others—like Douglaston, Forest Hill Gardens, and Kew Gardens—are suburban-style enclaves of the well-to-do. Major ethnic concentrations include the Greeks in Astoria; the Irish in Woodside; the Italians in Maspeth and Ridgewood; African-Americans in Hollis, Cambria Heights, St. Albans, and South Jamaica; and Jews in Forest Hills. Large numbers of Chinese and Koreans live in Queens, with particularly heavy concentrations in Flushing, Jackson Heights, Corona, and Elmhurst.
Queens is the home of Shea Stadium, Aquect Racetrack, the National Tennis Center, and both LaGuardia and John F. Kennedy airports. Queens hosted the World』s Fairs of 1939 and 1964. Queens has more than 6,400 acres of parkland, almost as much as the other four boroughs combined, and it has 16 km (10 mi) of beaches along the Atlantic Ocean. Queens is known for its numerous and enormous cemeteries. For example, Calvary Cemetery is the burial site of 2.5 million persons, more than any other burial ground in the United States.
B
Brooklyn
Brooklyn is the second largest and most populous of the five boroughs. It is located on the southwestern tip of Long Island west of Queens and situated across the Upper Bay and the East River from Manhattan. The borough has a land area of 182.9 sq km (70.6 sq mi). Brooklyn had 2,465,326 residents in 2000, more than any other U.S. city, with the exception of the entire city of New York and the cities of Los Angeles and Chicago. Indeed, as a separate municipality before 1898, it was the third largest city in the United States.
Brooklyn retains a strong separate identity. It has an important central business district and dozens of varied and clearly identifiable neighborhoods, including Bedford-Stuyvesant, the largest black community in the United States, and Williamsburg, Crown Heights, and Borough Park, all of which have large populations of Orthodox Jews.
Brooklyn is the home of such major cultural institutions as the Brooklyn Museum, the Brooklyn Academy of Music, and the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. Coney Island is well known for its beaches and amusement parks. Prospect Park, a landscaped area of broad drives and wooded hills, contains a restored carousel dating from 1912 and the Lefferts Homestead, a Dutch colonial farmhouse dating from 1783.
C
Staten Island
Staten Island is the third largest and least populous of the five boroughs. It is located at the juncture of Upper New York Bay and Lower New York Bay. The island is physically closer to New Jersey, to which it is connected by three bridges, than to the rest of New York City, to which it is connected only by the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge and the world-famous Staten Island Ferry. Staten Island encompasses 151.5 sq km (58.5 sq mi). The southernmost of the five boroughs, Staten Island had 443,728 inhabitants in 2000, or about 5 percent of the population of the entire city.
Overwhelmingly white, Staten Island has dozens of distinct neighborhoods or towns, and it has the highest proportion of single-family housing and owner-occupied housing in the city. Staten Island has many homes dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. Of special interest are the Conference House (1680), where futile peace negotiations were held between the British and American representatives in 1776 ring the American Revolution (1775-1783), and the Voorlezer』s House (1695), the nation』s oldest surviving elementary school building.
Other attractions include the Jacques Marchais Center of Tibetan Art and the Staten Island Zoo. A memorial to Italian nationalist Giuseppe Garibaldi, who lived on Staten Island in the 1850s, is located in the borough.
D
The Bronx
The Bronx is the fourth largest and the northernmost of the five boroughs, and the only one on the American mainland. Even so, it is surrounded by water on three sides: Long Island Sound on the east, the Harlem and East rivers on the south, and Hudson River on the west. Encompassing 109 sq km (42 sq mi), it had 1,332,650 inhabitants in 2000.
Largely residential, the Bronx includes dozens of vibrant neighborhoods. Fieldston is particularly elegant, with great stone houses set among spacious lawns and privately-maintained streets, while Belmont has become the city』s most authentically Italian section. The areas along Pelham Parkway and the northern reaches of the Grand Concourse are particularly prized, because the apartment buildings are well kept and the public parks are easily accessible. City Island retains the charm of a small fishing village.
Parts of the Bronx, however, fell victim to decay and abandonment, especially between 1970 and 1980, when the population of the borough fell by 20 percent. The low point occurred in 1976, when future U.S. president Jimmy Carter compared the South Bronx to the bombed-out German city of Dresden after World War II (1939-1945). Since 1980 the process has again reversed and self-help groups have begun to rehabilitate most of the most devastated blocks.
The borough』s many attractions include the world-famous Bronx Zoo, Yankee Stadium, and the New York Botanical Garden. The Bronx also includes two of the largest middle-income housing projects in the United States. Parkchester, built between 1938 and 1942 for the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, houses 40,000 people in apartment buildings arranged along well-planned circular drives. Co-op City is even larger, with 35 apartment towers, 236 townhouses, and more than 50,000 residents. Built between 1968 and 1970 on marshland near the Hutchinson River Parkway, it is the largest single housing complex in the nation.
E
Manhattan
Manhattan, or New York County, is the smallest of the five boroughs of New York City. The borough consists principally of the island of Manhattan, but also includes Governors Island, Randalls Island, Wards Island, Roosevelt Island, U Thant Island, and Marble Hill, a small enclave on the edge of the Bronx mainland. Its land area is 59.5 sq km (23 sq mi). Manhattan』s population peaked in 1910 with 2.3 million people, after which it began a slow decline to 1.4 million in 1980. Since then, the population has again begun to increase, reaching 1,537,195 in 2000.
Manhattan is the glittering heart of the metropolis. It is the site of virtually all of the hundreds of skyscrapers that are the symbol of the city. Among the more famous of these are the Empire State Building (1931), the Chrysler Building (1930), and Citicorp Center (1977). (The 110-story twin towers of the World Trade Center were also among New York's famous skyscrapers until they were destroyed in a terrorist attack in 2001.) Manhattan is also the oldest, densest, and most built-up part of the entire urbanized region.
Other noteworthy buildings include City Hall (1802-1811), a Federal-style building with French Renaissance detail; the Seagram Building (1958), an office tower clad in bronze and bronze-colored glass; and Grant』s Tomb (1897), the tomb of President Ulysses S. Grant and his wife. Notable religious structures include Saint Patrick』s Cathedral (1879), the seat of the Roman Catholic archdiocese of New York and the Cathedral of Saint John the Divine (begun 1892), the largest Gothic-style cathedral in the world.
Manhattan is the center of New York』s cultural life. Numerous stage and motion picture theaters are located around Broadway in Midtown, which includes Times Square. The borough is the home of prominent music and dance organizations, such as the New York City Opera Company, the Metropolitan Opera Association, the Philharmonic-Symphony Society of New York, American Ballet Theatre, and the New York City Ballet.
III
Population and Area
New York City has long been unusual because of its sheer size. Even before 1775, when its population was never more than 25,000, it ranked among the five leading cities in the colonies. It surpassed Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, by 1810 to become the largest city in the United States, and in 1830 it passed Mexico City, Mexico, to become the largest in the western hemisphere. By 1930 it was the largest city in the world. In the 1980s the metro region was surpassed in total size by Tokyo, Japan; Mexico City; and São Paolo, Brazil. Yet with 21.2 million people, the New York City region remains an urban agglomeration of almost unimaginable size. For example, in 2003, when the population of the city itself was 8.1 million, each of its five boroughs was large enough to have been an important city in its own right, with populations exceeding those of many major U.S. cities.
The five boroughs of New York City together cover 786 sq km (303 sq mi). The urbanized area, however, includes 28 adjacent counties in New York state, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania. Together, they make up the New York metropolitan region, which in 2000 housed about 8 percent of the national population on about 0.2 percent of the land area of the contiguous 48 states. Moreover, New York stands at the center of the urbanized northeastern seaboard, which contained about 60 million people in the late 1990s.
New York has been among the most ethnically diverse cities in the world since the 1640s, when fewer than 1,000 total residents spoke more than 15 languages. Between 1880 and 1919, more than 23 million Europeans immigrated to the United States. At least 17 million of them disembarked in New York. No one knows how many remained there, but as early as 1880, more than half the city』s working population was foreign-born, providing New York with the largest immigrant labor force on earth.
Half a century later, the city still contained 2 million foreign-born residents (including 517,000 Russians and 430,000 Italians) and an even larger number of persons of foreign parentage. And at the end of the 20th century, the pattern remained the same. In 1996 the U.S. Census Bureau reported that more than 11 out of every 20 New Yorkers were immigrants or the children of immigrants. Nearly half of all Bronx residents and one-third of Manhattan』s were Hispanic and nearly one-fifth of the population of Queens was Asian-American. Researchers estimated that immigrants would make up about 33 percent of the city』s population in 2000, approaching the 20th-century peak of about 40 percent, reached in 1910.
Meanwhile, the black proportion of the New York population, which reached 20 percent in the colonial period and declined to less than 2 percent in the 1870s, began a slow rise thereafter. According to the 2000 census, whites make up 44.7 percent of the city』s population; blacks, 26.6 percent; Asians, 9.8 percent; Native Americans, 0.5 percent; Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders, 0.1 percent; and people of mixed heritage or not reporting race, 18.3 percent. Hispanics, who may be of any race, are 27 percent of the population. By the late 1990s, more than 120 languages were spoken in the city』s schools, and there were dozens of ethnic churches, political organizations, cultural festivals, and parades, as well as scores of foreign-language newspapers, magazines, and television and radio stations. Although rivalries among the various groups could be intense, the very diversity of the city permitted immigrants to mingle more easily than in most other parts of the nation.
IV
Culture and Ecation
Because of its huge size, its concentrated wealth, and its mixture of people from around the world, New York City offers its residents and visitors a staggering array of cultural riches and ecational opportunities. The city is the world』s leading center for performing arts and its museums contain a wide range of artistic and historical subjects. A mixture of cultures from around the world is reflected in the street festivals and ethnic celebrations that take place year-round. In addition, more than 100 institutions of higher ecation operate in New York City, including some of the nation』s more prestigious centers of learning.

A City of the World--New York
Mot people imagine New York to be a city of sky scrapers. Perhaps too, they associate the city with the Wold Trade Center, the statue of Liberty, Fifth Avenue, Times Square, the United Nations, and Central Park and so on. Except for the Statue of Liberty all these places are in one part of the city, that is, Manhattan, which seems to be an island of skyscrapers.
The city is also a place where the headquarters of the United Nations is located. People from all over the world live in the citysand work at the United Nations. The translator working at the UN must speak one of the five official languages: English, French, Spanish, Russian and Chinese.
The World Trade Center is a "United Nations of Com merce"along Hudson River. The towers of the World Trade Center are 405 meters high, and each has 110 floors. Together the two towers have 48 600 windows. Three of the 102 elevators in each tower can take you from the first to the ll0th floor in one minute. Besides, there are international banks, government offices, transportation companies, restaurants and import and export businesses inside the twin towers. The lob by of a building is usually on the ground floor, but at the World Trade Center there are lobbies in the sky!
[點評]
紐約市是世界上最著名的城市之一。作者在第一段里介紹了紐約的 名勝景區,第一段講述了聯合國總部的情況,第二段描述了世界貿易中心,使讀者對紐約有了清晰的印象。
[參考譯文]
世界之城——紐約
大部分人把紐約市想像成一座擠滿摩天大樓的城市。也許他們還將這座城市與世界貿易中心,自由女神像,第五大道,時代廣場,聯合國,中央公園等等聯系在一起。除了自由女神像外,其他地方都集中在這座城市的一塊叫做曼哈頓的區域。它就像是一座滿是摩天大樓的島嶼。
這座城市也是聯合國總部的所在地。來自世界各國的外交人員住在這里,在聯合國上班。在聯合國工作的譯員必須會講聯合國五種正式語言中的一種。這五種語言是英語、法語、西班牙語、俄語和漢語。
世界貿易中心是沿著哈得遜河的「商業聯合國」。它的雙塔高405米,每座塔有110層。兩座塔共有48 600架窗戶。每座塔里102個升降電梯中的3個可以在一分鍾之內將你從一層送到110層去。另外,國際銀行,政府辦事機構,運輸公司,餐館,進出口貿易公司等都設立在雙塔之內。一般來說,大樓的大廳在底層,而在世界貿易中心,空中也有大廳!

『玖』 關於紐約
紐約市(英語:New York City,官方名稱為The City of New York),簡稱紐約,是美國人口最多的城市,包括其都會區,它擁有世界上最大的城市區。超過一個世紀的時間,紐約是世界上最主要的商業和金融中心,並評選為世界級城市。紐約在全球范圍內直接影響著媒體、政治、教育、娛樂以及時尚界,其中聯合國總部也位於該市。
紐約是美國最大城市及第一大港,位於美國大西洋海岸的東北部,紐約州東南部。該市有曼哈頓區、皇後區、布魯克林區、布朗克斯區、斯塔滕島區等五個區。在人口方面,紐約也是全美國人口最密集的城市,估計約有8,274,527人[1]在790平方公里的土地上。[2][3][4][5][6]
紐約在眾多美國城市中,有著獨特的大眾運輸系統,並在人口族群上有著其多樣性及高密度。在2005年,該市有將近170種不同的語言及百分之三十六的人口是非美國當地出生的[7][8]。因為該市廣大、二十四小時營業的地下鐵路系統,和繁華的建築物、交通及人們,所以紐約也常被稱為不夜城(The City that Never Sleeps)。其它昵稱包括高譚[9]和大蘋果。[10]
荷蘭人於1624年成立,作為商業的交易站,並稱該地為新阿姆斯特丹。紐約自1785年到1790年,擔任美國首都[11],也在1790年之後,成為美國最大的都市之一。
如今,該市有非常多的地標、社區是世界知名的。自由女神像歡迎數百萬移民在十九世紀到二十世紀初的到來;位於曼哈頓下城的華爾街,則是自第二次世界大戰後主導全球的國際金融,紐約證券交易所也位於此地。

[編輯] 市名
雖然一般寫作New York City,但City of New York才是官方名稱。紐約(New York)意為「新約克」—約克則是英國一處地名。另外由於在二十世紀初,紐約對外來移民來說是個嶄新天地,機會處處,因此紐約常被昵稱為「大蘋果」(the Big Apple),便是取「好看、好吃,人人都想咬一口」之意。
紐約市有官方拉丁語名稱Novem Eboracum用於市徽上,意為「新艾伯拉肯」。其中艾伯拉肯就是前述約克在羅馬帝國時期的拉丁語舊名。

1900年時的墨貝里街
911事件之前紐約市的天際線
紐約市政廳
歐洲人於1524年[12]由喬瓦尼·達韋拉扎諾發現紐約,當時約5000位的勒納佩族族人一直居住於此區域。1613年荷蘭人於此地建立了新阿姆斯特丹(New Amsterdam)和新尼德蘭(New Netherland)。1640年,彼得·斯特伊弗桑特被任命了州長,1652年,此殖民地被授予自治權。1664年,英國征服了此殖民地和把它改名為新約克(New York),因為英國早前就已經有城市被名為約克(York),而當時英國的海軍大臣正是國王查理二世的弟弟約克公爵詹姆士。荷蘭人後於1673年8月收復此殖民地,給城市改名"新奧蘭治"(New Orange),然後在1674年11月此殖民地就永久地被割讓給英國。
英國重奪此殖民地後,把它再次更名為紐約市(City of New York),並且把它包圍著,不許它發展,終於New York Campaign爆發,這是美國革命戰爭早期的一系列的主要爭斗,以後,紐約市一直續繼被英國管理,直到戰爭結束,是最後一個英國搬離的港口。
根據美國憲法大會,1788年9月13日,紐約市曾是新形成的美國的臨時首都,直到1790年。1825年伊利運河開始運作,紐約市的經濟亦有所增長,成為一個經濟中心。
美國內戰期間,紐約市有不少動亂和混亂的情況出現,如紐約黑幫(Gangs Of New York),和1863年的紐約徵兵暴動等等。其中一些成了美國史上傷亡最慘重的暴動。
1904年,紐約市的一系列新運輸系統一一開始運作,最著名的有紐約地鐵,它們幫助鞏固紐約市。歐洲的大量移民為社會帶來大變動,而反資本主義的工會IWW(Instrial Workers of the World)則被抑制了。後來, 在1920年代,大量非裔美國人從美國南部遷移至紐約市,而一些人則協助建造摩天大樓,創造了曼哈頓那聞名全球的天際線。
大蕭條期間,紐約市亦遭受波及,第二次世界大戰時,紐約市亦起了重大的作用。
自兩次世界大戰以後,紐約市成了主導世界的城市,但1950年起,紐約市經濟開始衰落,只剩下工業和商業,70年代期間,紐約市的犯罪率上漲到了危險程度,因而成為了惡名昭彰的犯罪之都,但自朱利安尼上任後,大幅改善了紐約的治安。
2001年9月11日,恐怖分子攻擊世界貿易中心,幾乎有3000人遇害。當中有世貿的工作人員,二架商業噴射飛機上的乘客,和上百名消防員、警察和急救隊員。
[編輯] 地理
紐約市處於紐約州東南部。由於面積廣大,又分為五個區域,分別是曼哈頓、皇後區、布魯克林區、布朗克斯區和斯塔滕島區。其中曼哈頓、皇後區、布魯克林區和布朗克斯區的大眾交通運輸系統有紐約地鐵。

[編輯] 交通
主條目:紐約交通
大中央車站是紐約市重要的交通樞紐,有數條鐵路及地鐵交會於此站。
肯尼迪國際機場不僅是大紐約地區主要的國際機場,亦為美國東北部重要的進出大門,更是攸關美國經濟的空運樞紐。
紐約市為美國最大、最擁擠的城市,亦為世界上最大的大型都會區所在,因此該市的交通流量十分龐大。每逢尖峰時段或假日,經常會有大量人潮、車潮流動於市中心曼哈頓內或五大區之間,經常導致市區內各重要幹道及重要的連外橋梁,出現交通阻塞的情形。
紐約市與其周邊地區的交通流量龐大,因此以紐約市為中心的紐約都會區也有著由各州政府獨自或互相合作成立的單位負責提供大紐約地區的交通需求。紐約州、新澤西州、與康乃狄克州有著大量的通勤上班族,每天對大紐約地區有著非常大的運輸需要,這更使得大紐約地區擁有全美國最發達的大眾運輸系統。而相較於美國其他大部分都市(尤其是洛杉磯)以車代步的交通方式,紐約人主要是搭乘公共汽車、地鐵及渡輪上下班,而其中,紐約地鐵是世界上最大的公共運輸系統之一。此外,目前亦有可以共通使用於紐約地鐵與公共汽車之間的磁卡票證系統—MetroCard,系紐約市政府為了推廣大眾捷運交通而實施的乘客優惠制度。由於這項改革使紐約地鐵與公共汽車間的轉乘更為方便,因此廣受市民及遊客歡迎。在1997年該卡當發行不久時,紐約大眾運輸系統的乘客人數就已經達到了2700萬人次。
此外,由於紐約市境內河流港灣錯綜復雜,因此橋梁及隧道數量眾多,是其一大特色。這些橋梁及隧道對紐約的發展貢獻甚巨,尤對四面環水的曼哈頓島來說更是如此,因為橋梁是民眾往來市中心(即曼哈頓)及郊區間的必經通道,隧道亦然。但每逢上下班尖峰時刻,橋梁和隧道反而變成了交通瓶頸。
除了都會區內交通發達之外,紐約市與全美各地的往來亦十分頻繁,透過發達、復雜的鐵公路網,紐約居民得以更快速、方便的往返全國各座都市。此外紐約也由於地處美國東北部,距離歐洲也較近,又接近全球最繁忙的北大西洋航線,故不論是與歐洲各地間的空運及海運交通,均十分繁忙。

觀光業是紐約相當重要的經濟來源,每年大約有4700萬美國與外國觀光客造訪紐約。帝國大廈與埃利斯島、百老匯、博物館(如大都會博物館)、中央公園、華盛頓廣場公園、洛克菲勒中心、時代廣場、布朗克斯動物園、紐約植物園都是著名的觀光景點。麥迪遜大道與第五大道兩旁的精品店也是遊客購物的中心。
