We were house hunting in NY state in 2000 and wouldn’t even LOOK at houses on Clinton Street.


Possibly named after DeWitt Clinton who was behind the construction of the Erie Canal. Now Obama Street, Malcom X Ave, or Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. are another thing entirely!

Definitely named after DeWitt Clinton. It was just the Word, “Clinton” at that point in history ...

A song we sang in school when I was growing up in NY: Do you recognize it?

“Oh I had a mule and her name was Sal...”
