My understanding is that it refers to the area of the body served by the gluteus maximus muscles... ;0) I don't believe it's a "New Yorkism", or even confined to the USA. Here's a link from Phoenix: keister It supposedly has European derivation. :0)

Yes, that's it, Two sleepy.
Ass, rump, buttocks, etc. I suppose it's kind of slang.
But originally was used as: suitcase or bag....
The origin is unknown though
German- Kiste
Yiddish- kestl
I agree with 2sleepy and don't think it's use is limited to NY, but perhaps more popular there.
