For cities such as NYC, a good resource is Tiger from the Census
Bureau. Older cities with well known streets are nearly perfectly (as
far as can be done) depicted in the Tiger shapefiles. You can download
a single county "edges" shapefile and use that as your resource. The
best thing about it is there aren't any restrictions on how and for
what you use the data, unlike most geocoders and routing systems.

Search Google for "Tiger Census 2008 shapefiles" - this should get you
the URL.
