Because, upon the enforced closure of Storyville in New Orleans, many jazz musicians were thrown out of work and they left town and headed to Chicago where there was still plenty of work for musicians to be found. King Oliver, one of the most famous New Orleans band leaders took his whole band later sending for the young Louis Armstrong to come and join the band on second cornet. Louis was such a phenomenon that many jazz musicians flocked to Chicago just to hear him play and learn from him. Chicago then replaced New Orleans as the most happening jazz city in the US. There was very little jazz activity in New York at that time.
