Each City borough is also State county. 1  Manhattan - New York County. 2  Bronx - Bronx County. 3  Brooklyn - Kings County.  Queens - Queens 1  County. Staten Island - Richmond County.
West of the Bronx River (which bisects the borough) was annexed by NYC in 1874 while everything east of the river joined New York County by 1895. Until 1898, when NYC became an agglomeration of five boroughs, Manhattan and the Bronx were the same county: New York County. Finally, the Bronx became a county on its own in 1914. Today, the boroughs are coterminous as Manhattan occupies New York county, Brooklyn, Kings County, and so forth.
