Who set up a DC power-distribution system in New York City in the late 1800s, believing AC shocks to be more harmful?

1. The choice between AC and DC distribution was fought out commercially in the late 1800s. 2. Thomas Edison held that AC shocks were the more harmful and built a DC system in New York City. 3. George Westinghouse and Nikola Tesla argued for AC on the other side of that dispute. 4. AC won in the end, so Tesla and Westinghouse are the advocates rather than the DC builder asked for. 5. Ohm died decades before any distribution system existed, so he cannot be the answer. _Source: OpenStax College Physics (CC BY 4.0), Ch 20 "Electric Current, Resistance, and Ohm's Law", section Why Use AC for Power Distribution?_
