In 1865, the streets of Manhattan were primarily made of cobblestones, which were commonly used for their durability and ease of maintenance. Many streets also featured dirt or gravel surfaces, especially in less developed areas. As urbanization progressed, some streets began to be paved with wooden planks or bricks, but these materials were not yet widespread across the entire city. The infrastructure was still evolving as New York City grew rapidly during this period.

Are Manhattan and New York City the same thing?

No, not quite. New York City is made up of five boroughs: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island. Each borough is also a county: Manhattan is New York County, Brooklyn is Kings County, Staten Island is Richmond County, and the other two have the same names (Queens County and Bronx County). Manhattan is the main borough, where Times Square, Rockefeller Center, Central Park, Wall Street, The Empire State Building and all the other famous New York City landmarks are. Also, before the five boroughs became one city in 1898, New York City was just Manhattan. So, until 1898, Manhattan and New York City were indeed the same thing. So, often people will say "New York City" when they really mean "the borough of Manhattan." But technically speaking, they are not the same thing. New York City is not just the island of Manhattan; it's also Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx and Staten Island.
