New New York

New New York is a major city in the United States and the primary setting of Futurama. New New York is the reincarnation of the former New York city, upon which it is located.

History
In the year 3000, the name of the state of New York has been changed to New New York, presumably when it was rebuilt after one of Earth's periods of alien invasion. The city of New New York is built onto the ruins of Old New York. The city has seen some changes; the subways have been replaced with a tube transport network, and Ethnic neighborhoods like China Town and Little Italy have been joined by Little Neptune. But in many ways it has not changed much in 1000 years; people are still rude, public transportation is over-crowded, and it is a place where many cultures meet.

Also, the scene where Fry is saved by Leela from the Organ Dealer and his accomplice is similar to when Obi-Wan Kenobi saves Luke Skywalker from Cornelius Evazan and Ponda Baba.

Demographics
New New York is still one of the most diverse cities on earth. Throughout its history, the city has been a major point of entry for human immigrants; the term melting pot was first coined to describe densely populated immigrant neighborhoods. During the last 1000 years, robots (among them Bending Units) and aliens (among them Neptunians and Decapodians) also began to settle down in New New York and live in peaceful coexistence with each other.

Most of the population of New New York lives in apartments. Only a few can afford real estates.

Environment
In the 31st century, most greenhouse gases are caused by robots.

Pests remain a problem in the future. In hope to fight the rat and pigeons, owl were introduced. However, they filled the niche becoming the most prevalent pest of New New York. Cockroaches have reached the size of human beings, rats although greatly diminished, can be seen in the New York Sewers. Despite the introduction of the owl to New New York, pigeons are still present, albeit with a greatly diminished population.

Other species have arrived in New New York, among them Golden Marmosets who, like owls, have been introduced to fight pests, land squids, toilet snails and wall gophers.

Architecture
The building form most closely associated with New New York City is the skyscraper, whose introduction and widespread adoption saw New York buildings shift from the low-scale European tradition of the 19th century to the vertical rise of business districts in the 20th century to the vertical rise of apartments in the 30th century.

The late 30th century faced a revival of the Populuxe or Googie style which shape the skyline of New New York in the 31st century. Various devices and architecture are similar to this form of architecture that originated in the mid-20th century. Upswept roofs, curvaceous, geometric shapes, steel and neon, and bold use of glass are some of the most notable characteristics of Populuxe architecture. Other buildings are inspired by the Minimalist movement such as Central Bureaucracy. Objects are reduced to their necessary elements, in this case a cube. Madison Cube Garden is also minimalist while many other buildings are examples of Postmodern architecture which incorporates several styles of architecture.
