NeighborhoodX has created an interactive map that renames some of the well-known NYC neighborhoods and streets based on the premise that "no one knows history."
Where does the name Spuyten Duyvil in NYC come from? A river between Manhattan and the Bronx? A spring in Inwood or a trumpeter from a Washington Irving story?
NeighborhoodX takes a look at the changing names of New York's neighborhoods, often a reflection of the city's changing history and culture over the years
