United States??

edit

Since when is a 'boulevard' anything particularly related to America? Someone who knows something about urban planning etc needs to broaden the scope of this article a teensy bit.Stevage 10:59, 12 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

Ah who wrote so much crap in this?

  • "Boulevard (the street name does not include any definite article) is a historic street in Richmond, Virginia providing access to Byrd Park. It serves as the Border between the Carytown/Museum District to the west and the Fan district to the East. Attempts have been made to rename the street after Arthur Ashe, a tennis star who was born and grew up in Richmond proper, but no renaming attempts have succeeded thus far."

What the heck? I took that out since that had absolutely nothing to do with boulevards. --Onejsin 14:29, 5 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

I don't understand the objection. The fact that this boulevard has no name is notable, as were news reports about attempts to name it. I mean, unless you mean that this fact makes this article confusing. It might seem to be about boulevards in general or something. Or you think this street is not notable enough to have an article. Of course, something seems to have been deleted here, but the nature of the objection is not clear. Chrisrus (talk) 18:08, 5 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
