Explanation:

[STC002096] Imagine how drastically different New York City on the West Coast would be from its sibling on the East Coast. It might look a little like Seattle. In fact, settlers who came to what’s now the Seattle area established their town of New York in 1851, more than 200 years after the Big Apple made its home on the East Coast in 1624. Later renamed New York-Alki (‘Alki’ means ‘by-and-by’ in Chinook), the town was evetually relocated to the Pioneer Square district on Elliott Bay, after which it was named Seattle in honor of Sealth, the friendly Duwamish Indian leader. After the relocation, the town was named Seattle in honor of Sealth. The term persisted, and a society that was unique to the Pacific Northwest emerged as a result.
