Little Lima is bounded to the west by Spruce Street, to the north by McBride Avenue, to the east by Cianci Street, and to the south by Ward and Oliver Streets. The commercial heart of Little Lima is Market Street. Little Lima is close to Paterson's Little Italy and to the Mexican, Dominican, and Puerto Rican neighborhoods on Main Street, as well as the nearby Great Falls on the Passaic River. Peruvian bodegas, bakeries, groceries, and restaurants line this busy section of Market Street. Little Lima is home to the Great Peruvian Festival and the Peruvian Parade, held in the summer. Little Lima is in the heart of Paterson's first neighborhood, Dublin. The Dublin District, as it was originally known, went from a mostly Irish American neighborhood to an Italian American neighborhood in Little Italy's heyday; however, the Dublin District and specifically Little Lima have since evolved into a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood, with many Peruvian, Ecuadorian, and Bolivian citizens.
