Untitled edit
On the main page it says of the building that it is "controversial" although it isn't explained why. Should we remove that bit of information because it hasn't been cited and explained?--Contributions/62.209.19.224 (talk) 16:20, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
citation for the above: 99percentinvisible.org/episode/hard-to-love-a-brute As a native of Mass, I can tell you, the building is universally hated. It's a stupid ugly building.
Also: I think this page is a poor duplicate of this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston_City_Hall — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.130.116.119 (talk) 00:55, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
Um, this and Boston City Hall are not the same building. They are about 1/4 mile from each other. The web page you cite talks about Boston City Hall, not this building. SethTisue (talk) 23:02, 19 September 2015 (UTC)
Joseph A. Langone Memorial Center edit
In 1962 an act was passed designating the "Health, Welfare and Education Service Center" as the "Senator Joseph A. Langone, Jr., Memorial Center". [1]
Am I missing something, or should this be mentioned in the article? Rosekelleher (talk) 03:31, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
