Giovanni da Verrazzano is remembered for being the first European to explore the east coast of North America, specifically the area that is now known as New York Harbor, in 1524. He was commissioned by the French crown to find a westward route to the Pacific and is notable for mapping parts of the Atlantic coast, including areas of present-day North Carolina to Newfoundland. His explorations contributed to the European understanding of North America's geography and paved the way for future explorations and settlements. Verrazzano's name is commemorated in the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge in New York City.
