Phone numbers with the 212 area code originate from most of the borough of Manhattan in New York City. Initially, 212 was the original code assigned for all of New York City in 1947. Its use was restricted to just Manhattan and the Bronx in 1985, and then further restricted to the rest of Manhattan in 1992. Notably, the Marble Hill neighborhood of Manhattan is located in the 718/347/929 numbering plan area (NPA), rather than the Manhattan NPA.
Area code 212 operates as part of an overlay complex, working alongside area codes 646 and 332 for Manhattan.
