It is a suburb of New York City in the southeastern part of New York State in the United States. It is located on the east bank of the Hudson River. It has a population of 196,086 (2000). It has characteristics similar to the neighboring borough of the Bronx to the north. Although it is primarily a residential city, it also has a thriving industry, including elevator manufacturing, which has been a tradition since 1852, as well as cable, pharmaceutical, and paper manufacturing. It was founded by the Dutch West India Company in 1639, but it did not become an independent town until 1855, and city ordinances were implemented in 1872. Philip House, built in the 17th century, is preserved as a representative building from the colonial era.

アメリカ合衆国、ニューヨーク州南東部、ニューヨーク市の郊外都市。ハドソン川東岸に位置する。人口19万6086(2000)。北接するブロンクス区とよく似た特性をもつ。主として住宅都市ではあるが、1852年以来の伝統をもつエレベーター製造を中心に、ケーブル、薬品、製紙など各種工業も盛んである。1639年にオランダの西インド会社によって開かれたが、町として独立したのは1855年で、72年より市制が施行された。17世紀に建設されたフィリップ邸は、植民地時代の代表的な建物として保存されている。 [作野和世] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
