- "If you got nothing, go to New York. That way, if you leave with nothing, people don't ask why. And if you leave with something, then you are one lucky son of a bitch."
- ―A man's advice for Desmond Miles.[src]
New York City is the most densely populated city in the United States of America. During the American Revolutionary War, New York was also a stronghold of the British and American armies.
In 1776, the city was greatly damaged due to the Great Fire, which burned most of New York to the ground. Around this time, the Assassin Connor frequently visited New York in order to pursue the Templars. Following this, Connor managed to liberate three Templar forts, one in each of the city's districts, for Continental occupation.
In 2003, after having fled from the Farm, the Assassin hideout in which he had grown up, Desmond ended up living in New York City, working as a bartender at a successful nightclub named Bad Weather.[1] He would later revisit New York in 2012, specifically a Manhattan office, to recover a power source for the Grand Temple, though he came across opposition in the form of Daniel Cross.

Trivia
- It was intended for Connor be present in New York during the Great Fire of 1776, but it was too difficult to program civilians to react to the burning part of the city, so the event was left out of Assassin's Creed III.[2]
