This is one more surprise for people in this area; we not only had a Nobel Prize winner, but a Pulitzer Prize winner, and he even wrote a poem that mentioned New York Avenue, in Union City. I hope that as a result of these articles, the city residents will become interested in learning about all the people and things and places that we can call 'our own' and should respect and honor.
