Transcription: New York. Bought from Native Americans in 1626 for about $25 in trinkets and goods. Named for the English Duke of York, today with almost 8 million inhabitants in its five boroughs, New York City is the largest in the United States. It houses the headquarters of the United Nations, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, Greenwich Village, and Chinatown. And it has many legendary thoroughfares. Wall Street for finance, Broadway for theater, and Madison Avenue for advertising, to name but a few.
