- Upload all five zipped borough shapefiles from Bytes of the Big Apple. Be sure to uncheck 'Allow Carto to guess column types" when uploading, or you'll get column type mismatches
UNION ALLthe tables together with the following query. We can't justSELECT *because we'd have duplicatecartodb_ids in the result set, and saving as a new table would fail.
