Description: Seventh Avenue, formerly known as the First Ward, is an unincorporated community and neighborhood within the city of Newark in Essex County, New Jersey, United States. It is part of the North Ward, and was famously the heart of the city's large Little Italy. In its heyday, Seventh Avenue had a population of 30,000, including 11,000 children, in an area of less than a square mile. The center of life in the neighborhood was St. Lucy's Church, founded by Italian immigrants in 1891. Throughout the year, St. Lucy's and other churches sponsored processions in honor of saints that became community events. The most famous procession was the Feast of St. Gerard, but there were also great feasts for Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, Our Lady of Snow, the Assumption, and St. Rocco. Joe DiMaggio loved the restaurants of Seventh Avenue so much that he would take the New York Yankees to Newark to show them real Italian food. Frank Sinatra had bread from Giordano's Bakery sent to him every week until his death, no matter where in the world he was. New York Yankees catcher Rick Cerone also grew up in the First Ward. One of the nation's largest Italian newspapers, The Italian Tribune, was founded on Seventh Avenue. Seventh Avenue produced stars such as Joe Pesci and Frankie Valli of the Four Seasons. Congressman Peter Rodino, Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee during its impeachment proceedings against Richard Nixon was a native of the First Ward as well. Seventh Avenue was notoriously devastated following urban renewal efforts during the 1950s. Eighth Avenue was obliterated by the city council, scattering the Italian American residents to make way for the construction of the Columbus Homes housing project and Interstate 280. The area experienced one of the highest crime rates in the city during the 70s and 80s and was devastated by arson fires, leaving a landscape of rubble and burned out buildings. In the aftermath of that destruction, the neighborhood was largely rebuilt by erecting townhouses throughout much of the area, although most of its businesses never recovered. The construction of Interstate 280 also served to cut the neighborhood off from the rest of the city. During the destruction which occurred after urban renewal, some of the First Ward's Italians stayed in the neighborhood, while others migrated to other Newark neighborhoods like Broadway, Roseville, and the Ironbound. Seventh Avenue has people of all ethnic groups, with Puerto Ricans being prominent. There is still a large Italian American population, and there are many signs of the Italian presence in the area; however, next to a vacant lot, Giordano's at 33 Seventh Avenue is now closed. Drugs and prostitution are a big problem in the area. St Lucy's Church, which is now in a beautiful 1925 building, still exists and has a large feast for St. Gerard every October. The Feast of St. Gerard is a kind of reunion for old First Warders. By their proximity to I-280, the Christopher Columbus Homes became a highly visible advertisement of Newark's poverty. As residents dwindled away, the Newark Housing Authority took to painting curtains and plants in apartment windows to create the illusion of habitation. Demolition of the projects began in 1994 and is now complete. Townhouses have been built on the former site of the projects, as well as throughout much of the rest of the neighborhood, replacing the vacant and burned out buildings, but the old street grid was not restored. The Seventh Avenue neighborhood lies between the Orange Street and Broad Street stations on the Newark Light Rail. The Seventh Avenue neighborhood is bound by Interstate 280 to the south, Clifton Avenue to the west, Bloomfield Avenue to the north, and Broadway and Broad Street to the east. The Pavilion and Colonnade Apartments are located in the neighborhood.

Legacy of Achievment
A Legacy of Achievement: The Italian Americans explores the significant contributions of the Italian-American population to New Jersey's government, culture, education, economy, agriculture and science.
- More information available at
A wealth of Italian-Americans, including a doctor, former mayor, nun, engineer, Port Authority director, judge, artist, physicist and actor Joe Piscopo reminisce about the Italian-American experience. Like many who flee poverty and repression in their homeland to seek opportunity in United States, emigrants from Italy brought a strong sense of family, responsibility and loyalty. But over time, their assimilation into American culture caused certain traditions, including their native language, to lapse. The program profiles Italian heritage initiatives at two New Jersey universities, where third- and fourth-generation Italians are reclaiming their heritage. Co-Produced by the New Jersey Italian Heritage Commission and NJN Public television. Premiered October 11, 2005.
St. Lucy Disconnected.m4v
for all these words to fall out of my head and my heart and onto the record.
Like all the thoughts and pain and joy and things I never understood and NEEDED to just hear from someone else that they didn't understand either, or maybe they did and they could tell me. Like when I was 8 or 9 and my balls started aching, the pain was so bad and I was really scared and I wanted my Mum or my Dad to just tell me it was just a thing that happened and it would be ok, but I was too scared to ask because there was a party going on and I was afraid that the other men would think I was weird. See, things like this and many many more. So my life has been spent earning, borrowing, stealing and nurturing the skills to say all these things with music and words, colour and shapes. So now they clamor all to get out and find ears and eyes and hearts to rest in. To find answers, deliver answers, to help, to punish, to heal but most of all to love. Most of all to send out all the things that hurt and have this life soak them all up and send them back as hope, as wisdom. Most of all to send out all the things that confuse and have them reflected in eyes and come back with knowledge and truth and therefore consciousness and strength. To have them heal the hurts I've wrought, or heal the hurts wrought by my brothers and sisters and steal the tears out from under harms nose. Not to gain. Not to profit. Not to garner praise or lust, love or envy. Just because its what I've always yearned for, to have these words inside me said.
NOT 2 GAIN!
NOT for profit!
Not to get my rocks off on it!
Not for love?
Not for lust!
Simply for the fact I must.
NOT 2 Hurt?
Not to hate.
Not for country, city, state.
Not For Envy!
Recognition.
Selfishness or blind ambition?
This is for the child I waz.
Disconnected, loved but lost.
This is for the things I felt.
Far too young to know about.
This is for our childrens' eyes.
To KNOW that they're ok inside.
So not one more gets left behind.
From chrysalis, to butterfly.
Not for war.
Not 2 Score.
Not to feed and clothe the poor.
Not for freedom,
Courtroom Justice.
Not so Immigrants will trust us.
Not for pity.
Not for pride.
Not to reach the other side.
Not for crips.
Not for bloods.
Not for shame swept under rugs.
Not 2 lecture,
Not to preach.
Not to write my grammy speech.
Not to feed my rockstar dreams.
Anarchy and leather jeans.
Not for clever things to say.
Not to act a certain way.
Not coz its the latest thing.
Some kind of ANTI marketing.
This is for the broken one.
when it hurts, you learn to run.
Too tired from running to speak a word.
So good at hiding That no-one knows you're hurt.
So you hatch too soon, dark wings bloom.
You learn to numb the pain like the adults do.
Next thing trouble, trapped in a bubble.
They ask you why? but you've forgotten why you struggle.
Theres still time to stop, the bubble can pop.
Depends if they're paying attention or not.
The Teacher's asleep at the wheel you might say.
But we've all got faults at the end of the day.
NOT to point the finger.
Not to shift the blame.
Not to hide from consequence.
Not to point the way.
Not to prick your conscience.
Not to doubt your word.
But the broken kids become the broken people of the world.
If we could be responsible.
For JUST 1 broken child
