The history of New York City (1855 - 1897) began with the inauguration of Fernando Wood, the first mayor of the Tamani Hall, an institution that governed the city at this time in 1855. The reform caused a riot in New York City in June, 1857. Turmoil occurred during the American Civil War, and great riots occurred in the riots in New York. In the further growth of the poor immigrant working class, the era of gold plating brought the prosperity of the upper class of the city, and the integration of the economy and the municipality that became the five provinces of 1898.

Over the years, many people have reported a long history of tension between New York City Police (NYPD) and New York City Fire Department (FDNY). This insider eliminates this conflict concept, but explains the NYPD / FDNY relationship as a competition among brothers. Blue brothers and sisters are noble occupations. Historically, the friction between the two organizations came mainly from the turf war, including overlapping responsibilities in emergency situations. However, after the incident like Ferguson and Baltimore, the heightened anti-war sentiment in the United States caused a new unity between the two institutions.

New York's community policing program has a long history. Like many departments across the country, New York police have tried a new way, including team guard under the guidance of Patrick Murphy commissioner, in the revolt of the 1970s. In 1984, after the police killed Eleanor Barples and a series of protest actions, Secretary Benjamin Ward established the Community Patrol Officer Program (CPOP), the first community security service in the city. According to CPOP, "problem solving" was delegated to a group of experts in cooperation with local companies and regional leaders. Many officials mocked CPOP officials as female "CMOM" and considered these units as dead ends of their careers. Nonetheless, CPOP expanded from the pilot program to the whole city. By the early 1990s, there were more than 4,000 full time community cops in New York.
