Assignment of prefixes to the five areas around New York City

This table lists the three-digit prefixes used for exchanges in the five areas including New York City and the adjacent 914 and 516 areas. For each, all the exchange names used for those numeric prefixes in the areas are given, together with an indication of the area in which it was used. Note that prior to approximately 1950, New York City telephones were not able to dial directly out of the city, so that the conflicts that could occur afterward were not a problem. Clicking on the exchange name will transfer you to the alphabetic listing for the area in question where more details are given on the history of the exchange.

Exchanges discontinued prior to 1950 to provide for the institution of metropolitan dialing are shown with the note Conflict on the line listing the exchange. Note that in fact the discontinuances occurred a few years prior to the actual start of metropolitan dialing (see date for each individual exchange).

For a key to the representation of dates, see the Note on Dates below.

Since I am concerned with the names of exchanges as they were assigned by the telephone company, no attempt has been made, nor will any attempt be made, to follow the disposition of the exchanges after the total conversion to all-number calling (ANC) in the mid-1970s. Thus no effort has been, nor will be, made to determine whether an exchange survived until the times in the 1990s when the 914 area code was split into 914 and 845, the 212 code into 212 and 718, and the 516 code into 516 and 631, or which area code an exchange ended up in when this happened, except to note that all surviving Manhattan exchanges except LOrraine 2 remained in 212, LOrraine 2 and all surviving Bronx exchanges continued briefly in 212 after the 718 area code was established but were eventually transferred to 718, and all surviving exchanges in the remaining boroughs were put into 718. All surviving Westchester County exchanges remained in the 914 area code, while those in Putnam, Dutchess, and Rockland Counties were transferred to the new 845 area code; all surviving Nassau County exchanges remained in the 516 area code, while those in Suffolk County were transferred to the new 631 area code; I do not know about the exchanges that served subscribers in both counties along the Nassau/Suffolk line. The relationship of these new 914/845 and 516/631 boundaries to the Southern Westchester/Northern 914 and Western/Eastern Long Island boundaries used on this site is not of any concern to me.

NOTE ON DATES: When "Early 1931" is shown for a date, the start of service could possibly have coincided with the December 1930 change to two-letter exchanges, but all that is actually known is that it was between that date and May 1931.

Dates shown as "Pre-" and a year mean that the start (or end) of service took place after May 1931 and before the specified year, but no better information is known to me. For some exchange names, it is known that some prefixes were initiated after 1931 and before 1950, or between 1950 and 1955, but because data prior to 1957 are insufficiently detailed, it is unknown which numeric prefixes. In such cases, only "Pre-1957" can be shown with confidence, but a parenthhesized "(1950)" or "(1955)" will be included to show that it is believed, but not certain, that the prefix existed prior to the specified parenthesized date.

Dates shown as "Post-" and a year mean that the start (or end) of service took place after the specified year and before the transition to all-number calling, but no better information is known to me.

Dates shown as a pair of years in parentheses, separated by a hyphen, mean that the start (or end) of service took place no earlier than the first named year, and no later than the second named year, but no better information is known to me.

NOTE 1: The ADIrondack and FOUndation exchanges were located in the Bronx at the time of the December 1930 conversion to two-letter names ADirondack 4 and FOundation 8. Those exchanges eventually were closed, but new exchanges named identically were established in Manhattan.

NOTE 2: A 1959 telephone directory that I have seen shows a TUlip 5 exchange in the North Bronx. This would have the numeric equivalent of 885, exactly the same as the TT5 exchange started in 1960 in the same North Bronx zone. It is impossible that both could be in existence at the same time, so my suspicion is that the telephone company had planned, at the time the 1959 directory was printed, to introduce TUlip 5, and so put it in the zone list of exchanges for the benefit of customers who might have had to call numbers in that exchange while the 1960 directory had not yet come out, but by the time the exchange was opened, they named it TT5. This is simply speculation on my part, however. The fact that the telephone company predicted changes in advance is also shown by the fact that the 1960 directory shows both CIty Island 8 and TT5. This would indicate that the directory was printed when the exchange was still CIty Island 8, but the table listed TT5 so that subscribers could find TT5 in the table to compute their charges after the exchange was renamed.

NOTE 3: AMityville 4, CHapel 9, and MYrtle 1, 2, and 4 were not originally dialable from New York City and so are listed in the Eastern Long Island section. In the late 1950s, they became dialable, so a case can be made for including them in the Western Long Island section.

NOTE 4: The situation regarding BRowning exchanges is very confused. A 1955 directory shows BRowning 2 in Westchester County, but in a 1957 directory it is shown in Brooklyn. In 1959 it is also shown in Brooklyn, but in a different zone. This zone is also shown for Browning 2 in subsequent directories dated 1960 and later. The 1959 directory also shows BRowning 5 and 6, in Queens, but a 1960 directory does not show BRowning 6, and puts BRowning 5 in a different Queens zone. In addition, the 1960 durectory shows an AR 5 exchange, which would conflict with BRowning 5. What can only be concluded is that the listings in these directories reflected planned new exchanges, not actual ones in service. BRowning 2 may not have actually been implemented until after 1957, BRowning 5 (if at all; see the listing for TUlip 5 in Note 2) till after 1959, and BRowning 6 not at all.

NOTE 5: The changes from ORchard 4 to ORegon 4, and from WAshington Heights 7 to WAdsworth 7, were not made at one single time. New telephones were assigned the new name, but old telephones were not immediately changed, and directories from 1948 to 1957 showed both ORchard and ORegon 4, and as early as 1939 showed both WAshington Heights 7 and WAdsworth 7. By 1959, the change was complete.

NOTE 6: The 1957 directory consulted shows both TRiangle 6 and TRafalgar 6. These are not likely to have both existed at the same time. Neither the 1955 nor the 1959 directory shows TRiangle 6, while TRafalgar 6 appears in both the 1959 directory and earlier ones (The 1955 directory is unclear), which probably means that the reference to TRiangle 6 in the 1957 directory is in error. Until I am certain, however, this site will show TRiangle 6 as existing in 1957, though not in 1955 or 1959. More investigation is necessary.
