The 718 area code covers Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island β the four outer boroughs that make up the backbone of New York City's business landscape. Callifi provides 718 business phone numbers with hosted VoIP, on-site installation, and local support from Midtown Manhattan.
The 718 area code was introduced in 1984 when it was split from the original 212 code to serve Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. It was the first area code split in New York City history and quickly became the defining identifier for the outer boroughs. Today, 718 remains one of the most recognized area codes in the country β it signals a genuine, established New York City business rooted in the neighborhoods that drive the city's economy. From Williamsburg to Astoria, from Fordham Road to the Staten Island Ferry, 718 means New York.
