Trying to zoom in on NYC, I'm assuming Jewish is the plurality in the Bronx and Brooklyn?

NYC had about 2 million Jews in the 1950s and the Bronx and Brooklyn were clearly the "Jewish boroughs" then.  There's no way Manhattan was 36% Jewish at the time.  

Queens did see rapid Jewish growth in the 1940s and 1950s.  As late as 1940, Queens was more German/Irish/"old stock American" than it was Jewish/Italian.
