The Irish Hunger Memorial at Vesey Street and  North End Avenue is a few blocks north of the Battery and flanking the Hudson. It\u2019s a large structure incorporating an Irish cottage and stones from every Irish county. It commemorates the over one million who starved to death between the years 1845-1852, courtesy of the English. My friend and I walked south on the Hudson. We\u2019re both used to watching the river activity :the different kinds of boats and the ferries which are once again plying their trade to New Jersey and Staten Island. So it was great fun to look inward at the beautiful gardens and to discover The Irish Hunger Memorial. It\u2019s a beautiful, mysterious structure not without controversy, something dear to the Irish.<\/em>
