In 1952, there were 34 Blarney Stones in Dan Flannigan’s chain. The Blarney Stone On West 47th Street moved to its current location 13 years ago.

“This wasn’t just a bar, but a meeting place,” owner Jim D’Apollonia said. “In Ireland, every town has a great pub. For us, this was ours in Hell’s Kitchen.” [Gothamist] –Christopher Cameron
