Mulberry Street is also the setting of the Dr Seuss story "How Officer Pat Saved the Whole Town" ( 1951 ) and "Marco Comes Late" ( 1950 ) [1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.2.75.166 ( talk) 22:58, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

Mulberry street ran below the Five Points, with the only road leading directly to it being Cross street. Also, even though this article claims differently, the true heart of the Five Points, were the points themselves, at Paradise Square. Should this claim in this article be changed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.229.224.133 ( talk) 22:24, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
Is Merle Allin really the street's most famous resident? It seems odd to mention Allin and no one else. Daly 07:04, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

I think I've figured out the problem. For whatever reason, the Times only scanned the first 18 pages of the May 31, 1896 edition, but in the "Bulletin of To-day's News" on page four, in which the major stories on each page are listed, content is listed for pages 19 through 32, including, on page 32 "Little Italy in New-York". So, my inclination was incorrect, ProQuest appears to be more comprehensive than the Times itself. Because of this, I've restored the information to the article. Sorry for the trouble.
