Where are the reliable secondary sources with nontrivial coverage? The sources listed seem to be primarily maps, subway schedules, and a gazetteer of place names, rather than anything in-depth about this particular road. Which is fine for a basic level of Wikipedia coverage, I guess, but is it really enough to support a good article nomination? —David Eppstein 18:57, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

a Pass/Fail: 
The NY-164 - City Line Expressway reference is particularly excellent to show planning which went into this road.  This article meets the above criteria.  SriMesh | talk 04:20, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
Gun Hill rd does not come close to being in Morris Park at any point. The beginning of the street that they reference near the Hutchinson Parkway exit is over near Home Depot, that is not even close to being Morris Park. Cant say I know exactly what that neighborhood is called but it is, without any doubt, not Morris Park.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jnatch (talk • contribs) 13:31, 4 August 2008 (UTC) 

@Epicgenius: This article is nowhere close to being a GA, despite being listed. Do you think that this article should be reassessed? Thanks.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 12:20, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

Kew Gardens 613, I agree. This and East 233rd Street (Bronx) might need reassessment, since the history sections of both articles lack a lot of information. Currently, these articles are structured similarly to good articles about rural roads, but the difference is that rural roads do not have a lot of history and are relatively straightforward, unlike these two pages. epicgenius (talk) 13:48, 8 April 2020 (UTC)
