* Touched on in one of the verses of "The Mountains of Mourne" (1896) by Irish musician Percy French, although the song is set in [[London]] instead of New York:
{{quote|''You remember young Peter O'Loughlin, of course,
''Well, now he is here at the head of the force.
''I met him today, I was crossing the Strand,
''And he stopped the whole street with a wave of his hand.
''And there we stood talkin' of days that are gone,
''While the whole population of London looked on.
''But for all these great powers he's wishful like me,
''To be back where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea.}}
