Visitor's to NYC may not realize that there is a war going on on the streets of the city every single minute by every single minute. Clinton Papaya on the corner of Delancey and Clinton Streets on the lower east side of Manhattan is the least aggressive warrior in New York's famous Hot Dog Wars. Other warriors in the city are Gray's Papaya and Papaya King. Those guys are the heavyweights in this bout. statue of liberty graphic

Summer 2008 - This summer the Tenement Museum will debut its first exhibit which showcases the difficult struggles of the Irish immigrant experience in the mid 1800s in New York City's lower east side. Previous museum exhibits have been devoted to Italian, German and Jewish experiences with tenement living. The lower east side was predominantly German-speaking in the 19th century. The new exhibit will focus on the lives of Bridget and Joseph Moore who lived at 97 Orchard Street in Apartment 14. The couple—who struggled to pay the $8 rent on the modest fourth-floor apartment. Visitors to the museum will be treated to period melodies ethnomusicologist Mick Moloney recorded for the tour include “No Irish Need Apply” from 1865, and “Thousands Are Sailing,” a traditional Gaelic lamentation for friends and relatives who departed for America.
