finance, and entertainment. {{B}} Brooklyn:{{/B}}
Brooklyn was founded in 1646 as the little Dutch village of Breuckelen. Today
Brooklyn is the second largest borough in area and the most populous. Brooklyn
sometimes is called the borough of homes and churches. But it is also an
indispensable port. Almost half of New York City's foreign trade is handled at
Brooklyn's busy waterfront. Much of the city's heavy industry is located in
Brooklyn. The borough is one of the largest manufacturing centers in the United
States. {{B}} Queens:{{/B}} Queens was founded in
1645 at Vlissingen (today called Flushing). It is the largest borough in area.
Queens is one of the city's most popular residential areas. The borough is
important because of its concentration of railroads and heavy industry in the
Long Island City area. New York City's main airports—John F. Kennedy
International and La Guardia—are in Queens. {{B}} The

many industries have grown up near the East and Harlem rivers. {{B}}

Staaten Eylandt. It began in 1661 with a village called Oude Dorp. This island
borough, in New York Bay, was formerly called Richmond. With an area of about
