They found work along the Hudson River docks and rail yards, building communities in the rough-and-tumble neighborhoods that grew west of 9th Avenue.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" width=\"1250\" height=\"943\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Scruffy-Duffy-St-Patricks_5481.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-133422\"\/>An inflatable leprechaun greets patrons at Scruffy Duffy\u2019s on 10th Avenue and W45th Street.

While Hell\u2019s Kitchen was heavily Irish (the market\u2019s name gives that away), the stalls were run by a mix of immigrant communities \u2014 Italians, Poles, Germans, Jews \u2014 reflecting the layered history that still defines the neighborhood.<\/p>\n<p>Success!
