翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Grand Island, New York ： ウィキペディア英語版 Grand Island, New York Grand Island is a town and an island in Erie County, New York, USA. As of the 2010 census, the town population is 20,374. This represents an increase of 9.41% from the 2000 census figure.〔(2010 Census City and Town Growth via NYPIRG )〕 The current town name derives from the French name La Grande Île, as Grand Island is the largest island in the Niagara River and fourth largest in the state. The phrase ''La Grande Île'' appears on the town seal. Over the course of its history, the island has served as home to the Attawandaron Nation, and been an acquisition of both French and English colonial pursuits. In 1945, Grand Island was part of a plan to make a new World Peace Capital on the international border between Southern Ontario and Western New York. The plan proposed placing the United Nations headquarters on adjacent Navy Island (Ontario, Canada), which was considered an ideal location because it lay on the boundary between two peaceful countries. An artist's rendering of the World Peace Capital showed the property with bridges spanning both countries (at Grand Island in the US and the Canadian mainland on the other side).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Proposed United Nations Headquarters on Navy Island Niagara Falls, ca 1945 )〕 The proposal was ultimately turned down in favor of the current U.N. headquarters in New York City. The Town of Grand Island is located at the northwestern corner of Erie County, on the western edge of New York State and on the Canada–US international border, although there is no river crossing. It is northwest of Buffalo and is traversed by Interstate 190 and New York State Route 324. ==History== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Grand Island, New York」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
