How has New York City's location on a river and ocean shaped its development?

The shoreline around New York Harbor is very steep, and underwater it drops off and becomes very deep very quickly. This makes it an ideal harbor, as there are no shallow places that boats can get stuck on. Being located on the edge of the ocean, and with a geologically perfect harbor, the city was destined to be a port city. As a port city, trading and business flourished, turning New York into the financial capital of the U.S. (if not the world).
