Die Geschichte des New Yorker Transportsystems. New York City unterscheidet sich von anderen US-Städten durch seinen geringen persönlichen Autobesitz und seine bedeutende Nutzung öffentlicher Verkehrsmittel. New York ist die einzige Stadt in den Vereinigten Staaten, in der mehr als die Hälfte aller Haushalte kein Auto besitzt (Manhattans Nichteigentum ist mit etwa 75% sogar noch höher; landesweit liegt die Quote bei 8%). New York City hat die bei weitem höchste Nutzung öffentlicher Verkehrsmittel unter allen amerikanischen Städten. New York City hat auch die längste durchschnittliche Fahrzeit für Pendler (39 Minuten) unter den großen US-Städten. Die Zweite Industrielle Revolution veränderte die Stadt grundlegend - die Hafeninfrastruktur wuchs nach der Fertigstellung des Erie-Kanals im Jahr 1825 so schnell, dass New York zur wichtigsten Verbindung zwischen ganz Europa und dem Landesinneren der Vereinigten Staaten wurde. Zwischen 1867 und 1904 wurden Hoch- und Untergrundzüge ("El trains" und "subways") eingeführt. Private Automobile brachten um 1930 eine zusätzliche Veränderung für die Stadt, insbesondere der Holland-Tunnel von 1927.
The history of the subway, or underground railway, dates back to the 19th century. The first underground railway was the Metropolitan Railway in London, which opened in 1863. It was proposed for London by Charles Pearson, a city solicitor, as part of a city-improvement plan shortly after the opening of the Thames Tunnel in 1843. The subway quickly became a popular mode of transportation in urban areas, as it allowed people to travel quickly and efficiently through the city. Over time, many cities around the world built their own subway systems, and today, subway trains are a common sight in many major cities. The technology used in subway systems has evolved over time, and modern trains are faster and more efficient than ever before.
