New Skirmishes Among Metropolitan Museum Vendors
In the continuing hot dog wars in front of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the military men have returned the sidewalk.
The two men, Armando Crescenzi and Harold Dalton, are former soldiers who now hold a position on the museum's plaza, brandishing veteran vending permits that they say give them the right to sell hot dogs to the throngs of hungry tourists and visitors in front of the entrance to the museum.
Their arrival has upset a peaceful period there during which three other vendors operated in relative harmony: a hot dog cart, a gourmet pretzel stand and an upscale seller of cupcakes and milkshakes.
The pretzel and cupcake carts pay the city about $100,000 each to operate there, but the hot dog operator pays nothing. He is a former Marine, Dan Rossi, who invokes a 19th-century state law that allows disabled veterans to sell in some areas of the city where other vendors must pay to occupy.
