The Growth of New York City: Every Year
Vložit
- čas přidán 16. 06. 2021
- The growth of New York City from its origins as the Dutch colony of New Amsterdam, to the sprawling metropolis of today.
Notes regarding the urban area and population
1) The definition of what counts as ‘New York City’ (both its population and area) is highly subjective. This is mainly due to sprawling, low-density suburbs typical of North American cities, as well as the varying official definitions (e.g. the Five Boroughs, the Metropolitan Statistical Area, etc.) I’ve tried to portray the city’s size in a reasonable way, but it’s by no means the only way. Other maps and statistics may vary significantly from what this video shows for this reason.
2) In the post-war era, NYC’s urban area has extended along New Jersey and Long Island beyond what is shown in the map. These are outside the map because showing them would force it to zoom to an impractically large area. These areas are still included in the population statistics where applicable, as explained in note 4.
3) The “rural area” in this video mostly consists of low-density suburbs after about 1970. They do not constitute contiguous built up areas, but rather areas of sporadic building. For this reason, they cannot be shown as urban. These areas are still included in the population statistics where applicable, as explained in note 4.
4) Post-war population figures are based on the New York-Newark-Jersey City Statistical Area. About 20% of this population lives in urban areas outside of the map, mentioned in note 2. A very approximate 5% also live in the low-density suburbs mentioned in note 3. Therefore the urban area shown in this video only contains about 75% of the population included in the 2021 population figure of 18.9m.

Hi everyone, thanks for the patience once again. Something I should mention - deciding what counts as NYC's urban area was quite a difficult task, and it's inevitably subjective for various reasons. I've explained it in more detail in the description. I'd suggest reading that if you want to use this video as a resource.
Yes
@K Dileep oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoOoOoOoOoOoOooOo
pls do Jakarta
@@excelvalentino6972 it's Batavia
Au départ New York , s'appelais La Nouvelle-Angoulême en 1524. C'est Jean De Verrazane qui a découvert Manhattan et qui la baptiser Nouvelle-Angoulême suite à l'expédition Française sous les ordres e François 1er. Puis après les Hollandais son arrivé et l'on baptiser La Nouvelle-Amsterdam, avent quelle soit prise par les Anglais.
Growth of Rome would be interesting considering it's illustrious history
@@Wandrative shush
Athens would also be amazing
Rome was in decline long before the western empire fell, so its not all glory all the time you know.
When they sacked Rome the imperial capital was Ravenna, and had been for a long time.
@@Wandrative greek spotted
Istanbul would be cool as well
Could we get "growth of major cities" as a full series?
Yes, I'm actually in the process of reorganising the playlists on this channel at the moment. There will be a dedicated playlist for city growth videos.
@@OllieBye do Jakarta PLS
@@excelvalentino6972 IMO it would look best with cities that have finished their growth, Jakarta is still a very fast growing city
@@OllieBye Even brazilian ones?
@@OllieBye next step, paris ?
Props to you, one American, living in the oldest part of NYC, the part built by the Dutch.
Nice.
@sebâstian turnayevf for your grades my bruv
How does it feel?
I actually do ama
After pushing others out of course
2:11 Commissioners Plan
2:45 Elevated trains begin operation
2:54 Brooklyn Bridge
3:07 Subway opens
This seems like a good video for me as I live in Bronx, NYC
Its amazing how a small dutch port became the biggest city in the US
Ikr
@@ih8people48 rule brittinia, brittania rule the waves
@@lesscringeymapperdude yessss
From this map it's easy to see how a sheltered harbor makes all the difference.
@@Reziac lol the dutch traded new york for suriname. now lets compare nyc and suriname
Very, very detailed. You even included the 40-acre wooded area behind my house by not shading it. All your videos are so dense with information and endlessly intriguing. You're a virtuoso of animated cartography.
At The end Of WWI, Nyc has The largest ranking in the world.
What I love most about New York (and what's difficult to capture in a map) is how its cultural and demographic character changes nearly every decade. It's layers and layers of different periods rapidly built on top of eachother, each leaving little legacies that still remain today
I would also the history of:
Athens, Naples, Byzantium (Constantinople and Istanbul), Rome, Paris, Vienna, Berlin, Beijing, Delhi, Tenochtitlan (Mexico city), Canton, Tokyo (Edo) and Samarkand
Petersburg and La Paz as well plz!
Dont forget Jerusalem/Al-Quds or Istanbul/Constantinople
London.
@@kenlompart9905 Already done big guy🤣
Shrewsbury in England (Won't take long).
These city growth vids are really amazing. I look forward to more of these in the future.
Hey, I'm sure this I going to be a work of the best quality, as you have always done. May I ask if you are thinking in ever finishing your 30 Years War series? Those were epic.
Well, I would need to make it from scratch. A lot of people ask me about that one, so it's possible.
@@OllieBye Thank you, that's great! Good luck for your works!
I haven't seen this kind of mapping presentation, this is very cool!!!
A very detailed information about growth of New York city
I was looking for a video like this for ages! Thank you :D
As a New Yorker.I can certainly tell you put alot of effort into this.Good job
Why did you inculde New Jersey? We all know that's fake news
Lmao yes
And the areas of Long Island which are outside of NYC
@@sygneg7348 I guess its the new york metropolitian area???
Went from a little tiny port for the netherlands to a global city.
Truly a magical place, New York.
One of the most unhealthy places to live in the entire modern world.
@@dlwatib adds onto magical
Yes, trash everywhere, giant rats, homeless people doing weird shit and attacking people, gang bangers killing people in Harlem and the Bronx, the hell that is the transit system, rude people, even more trash, a tone of death despair and misery, and oh yes, it’s virtually impossible for anyone from outside the greater New York area to ever get any sleep.
Truly a wonderful place.
Not as magical as LA also known as the city of underground pedophile tunnels.
i prefer to live in italy
There are three periods in the history of New York City:
- When it was Dutch.
- When it was British.
- When it is American.
Noyt really the american period can be split in the pre industrial, industrial and post industrial eras. It would be too simplistic to call it one era.
@@jefverstraete8574 then he meant geopolitical geopolitical periods
Nah, it's just one period;
-Wheh it was stolen from the natives...
@@user-xr2jt7ss4o manhattan was bought tho
@@davidjoelsson4929
From the Dutch who stole it 😂😂
Your maps are simply beautiful.
Cairo, Dubai, London, Costantine, Mexico City, Sydney, Paris, Berlin, Riadh and Washington DC are all Ideas
London allready done
Athens and Rome as well and what is Constantine?
Costantine is Istanbul
Turkey's Cqpital
@@muller6669 Constantinople is not the capital of Turkey, you're a Turk, you should've known that Ankara is the capital of your country.
This is amazing!I really like the bright light colours although would have loved some more labelling on the map!
This is utterly great, I can't stop looking at the detail.
I love these city illustration videos! The animation is so realistic
I’m very interested in seeing some American cities in their midwest region. I know that might be a brief video, but I think it will be cool how much these cities grew in the last 1 or 2 centuries.
Had never heard of Marten Moses, but great music. -- I like how you kept the historical growth sorted by era, makes it easy to follow.
Amazing video, definitely one of your best!
Amazing work!!
Awesome. This is very well done. Congrats!
Thanks for the work you did for historical information
what an awesome video! i'd love to see such a video about vienna.
I remember you talking about doing the History of the World(Ver 3.) in your discord server after this one
So whenever you finish that(Probably in the next 10 years).Maybe try doing your old conquest/wars series again. They were really fun to watch and best of all actually informative
Great job!
Can you do?
Growth of Paris
Growth of Berlin
Growth of Amsterdam
Growth of Stockholm
Yesss, I second this.
AWESOME!!!! 👍👍👍👍 Could you make more videos like this with other great cities??
Great work!
It’s interesting how the greater New York area naturally expands. North Eastern New Jersey is basically New York in every way. And it’s basically a bunch of independent cities that are similar to the boroughs of New York than actual cities.
Cape Town would be very interesting
Bro, I really love ur videos and I cant wait for another
Nice video and good choice of music too!
Just curious: if you are going to make this into a series for the growth of major cities in the world, which particular city would you consider to be the most difficult to make?
Very interesting and unique series. I like it a lot
I love your work, please make one abot Chicago ❤️
Stefan Milo reintroduced me to your channel.

Beautiful, very well done.
cant wait for more of these city maps, i love them
Can you make a video about İstanbul?
*I cant wait for nationalist Greeks*
@@turkishmapper07 they will say its Costantinople 100%
@@samuthemapper600 They will say “Istanbul is Greece”
You mean Constantinople?
@@turkishmapper07 xD
Dutch: hey lets build a city here.
British: nah mate we will take this.
thats not how it went, we sold it to them for suriname and other shit with more value
@@leonschrijvers8280 you’re saying Suriname was more valuable than New York City?
@@ihatestarsbucks6680 I think at the time the city was a few streets and a dock. Bot thanks Holland for selling to us!

Excelent, I like that graphics.
Nice , Hopefully maybe you could do the growth of the 500 biggest metropolitan areas of the world
keep up the good work
Do Buenos Aires, Berlin or Vienna pls🥺, I love your videos
I second this, grüße aus den Niederlanden.
@sebâstian turnayev Lol, i'm terribly sorry that I only read this right now. T and F stands for True and False right? I would say 1. is False. British got there name from the Britons (a celtic tribe but that tribe doas not resemble all celtic tribes obliously) but present day British (or people from the british isles) people are oblously a mixture of several "ancestries" or "etnicities".
4. The same with the Ottamans (multiple ethnicities) but for the outside world they would be called Turky or something and turky is the one and only succesor of the Ottoman empire. So if one of these should have been the opposite answer you could always argue different because this should be correct.
You already had your test didn't you?So I would not say the other answers.
Fascinating visual graphic! Would love to see LA or San Francisco!
Can you do "growth of vienna"?
Would be cool to look at!
great videos
Nice presentation but would have been more effective if you provided some modern markers for orientation and scale (eg adding a few major street names).
You should do Phoenix AZ. That should be fun to watch
i would love to see Boston or Chicago, Great video btw.
Thank you Ollie Bye!!!
The Growth of Tokyo next, please and thank you.
Wow I loved this video, you can make one of the growth of the city of São Paulo in Brazil
For the Brazilians 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Do one for Baghdad. Would be interesting enough.
Could you make a growth of Greater Buenos Aires? I feel like it would be something quite interesting.
Do Istanbul pls
You mean constinapole
Is consatantanople
Fuck spall wrong
@@gigachad3457 Constantinapole ends in 1453, now, the city's name is Istanbul.
@@gigachad3457 No
You should do one of pre-historic ”cultures”, like the 'funnelbeaker culture' or the 'Bactria-Margiana Archaeological Complex'
I’d love to see Melbourne or Sydney.
Man Melbourne will be interesting as you'd include the Mornington Peninsula and then you'd say random bits grow in odd places due to the mandated green wedges within the boundary
It would be interesting to see the growth of a city state such as Singapore.
Ollie Bye is the most fav video
I love it!
can you please do growth of LA I’d love to see all the major cities in the US covered
That's amazing!
Do Warsaw next.
You should do one of Vancouver and the lower mainland
i love these
You should do Los Angeles next!!
Do Los Angeles next please! :D
Could you do one for Los Angeles?
Make one on Delhi: it was populated and depopulated for like 8 times in its history. 7 cities were constructed in total in its history.
It would be cool if you did boston!
Hey, I love your videos, but all of your links are broken - patreon, deviantart, and discord. Can I get an up to date link for patreon or discord?
Could you do one about the growth of Athens?
Bonne vidéo, dommage par contre de ne pas avoir fait une référence à la Nouvelle Angoulême
3:26 my house was standing 10 years before it got urbanized.
(Edit) I enjoy your content for years ollie bye
Just to clarify, this video isn't about the individual buildings (there are millions in NYC, so that wouldn't be feasible). It's about the expansion of the urban area more broadly, although you seem to have recognised that in your comment.
Can someone notice that part where New York also used to named "Nieuw Oranje"? (0:48)
Ooh, I would love to see one of Los Angeles!
Tokyo's expansion would be quite interesting considering it has both the largest metro area and most people in a city. Hell, Tokyo's it's own prefecture, if I recall correctly.
I want to see Washington’s dc growth can you make this video? I want to watch it
It would've been nice to have little pictures in the corner showing what an average New York street was like in the different eras
Seriously i love this not kidding
Could you do the Algerian War next
Hello,could you remaster the history of the world,like what you did with the middle east?
Also nake them into 3 parts,ancient,medieval,and modern.
Can you try making one of Philadelphia?

@@Ajjubha_RaoL I excluded cities that has already been suggested, thus 'Other' Suggestions
Love this. And not just because we have the same last name!
i quite liked you used the metropolitan area rather than the district boundary
puts everything on a rather equal scale
Nice tank you
Do Instanbul next, pls
new york is absolutely nuts
Batavia > nyc
@@mhdfrb9971 wrong, Batavia became Jakarta.
New Amsterdam became Nyc
@@rubens2004 still Batavia is much better than Jakarta
@@mhdfrb9971 ofcourse
@sebâstian turnayev understandable, have a nice day
The growth of Moscow!!!!!
0:47 spot on with the name!!!! In 1673, the Dutch captured N.Y. from the English and dubbed it New Orange in honor of William III of Orange.
Growth of Paris please it would be very interesting or also Athens and constantinople maybe? And Venice or Even. Dubai from being a desert to a hiper advanced city
I noticed a bit of a dip in population during the 1970s. This is because so many people got the hell out of the city then and moved to suburbia.
