The place where William Waldorf Astor, the man for whom the "Waldorf Astoria" is named, John L Sullivan, Gentleman Jim Corbet, Big Tim Sullivan, the multi-millionaire and Robin Hood of politics, and the likes of Pat Forley, the politician, dined and had accommodation at the Pioneer, in those good old days.The great performers of their time, such as Weber and Field, George M. Cohen and Eddie Cantor are but a few of the many actors and songsters who succeeded in the Bowery theaters; places like the Crystal Palace Emporium. The Historic Bowery was the place to be for pleasure, music and always for politics.
