No, New York City's water supply comes from the New York City Watershed in upstate New York, in the Catskill Mountains and Hudson River Valley regions. The watershed has two separate systems: the Catskill/Delaware Watershed, which provides 90% of New York City's water, and the Croton Watershed, which provides the remaining 10%.
