A section of Route 21(McCarter Highway) in Newark, NJ, that stretches from the Clay Street bridge southward to the Interstate 78/Route 1&9 interchange. Where, if caught at a red light, you will most likely be asked to put some change in an old, used paper cup. Named after the treacherous canyon on Tattoine where Luke Skywalker would bullseye womp rats in his T-16, Beggar’s Canyon in Newark is sometimes also treacherous to navigate.
