Welcome to 1899
"In 1899, the streets of New York City echoed with the voices of newsies,
peddling the papers of Joseph Pulitzer, William Randalph Hearst, and other giants of the newspaper world.
On every corner you saw them carrying the banner.
Bringing you the news for a penny a pape.
Poor orphans and runaways, the newsies were a ragged army without a leader, until one day all that changed." -Racetrack Higgins

No New Posts Irving Hall

Irving Hall. A once beautiful and loved building is now a shell of a building. A ghost of the past. Most of the walls are in tatters, wallpaper curled off in the heat of the blaze. The pretty flower paper is now merely ashen gray flecks on the dilapidated floor. The stage possesses many burn holes and most of the stairs are missing. Only a few remain, strew across the floor. All the remains of the once lovely building are the grand doors. A reminder of what was and what will never be again.
