Bronx
North of Manhattan
The Bronx is the northernmost borough of New York City, the only one attached to the mainland United States.
It's known for Yankee Stadium, the Bronx Zoo, and as the birthplace of hip-hop.
The definite article is standard: I grew up in the Bronx.
A Bronx cheer is a derisive sound made by blowing air through closed lips—a raspberry.
