Talk:Astor Place

message: Should this be reflected in the article?  Also, there used to be a Starbucks in the Barnes & Noble on one of the Astor corners a while back, making it the corner of THREE Starbucks locations...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.239.224.162 (talk) 18:42, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Starbucks are NOT franchised in the US

message: I do not see what the relevance of having two Starbucks has to the place or the article. Any other opinions on this?
:Irrelevant, and the claim of the nickname is unsupported by the citation. Removed. oknazevad (talk) 17:24, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: The mention of Starbucks is advertisment, suggest removal

message: I thought a few more places might be in order.

message: Sometime lines for tickets for the Shakespeare Festival stretch around Astor Place, so I
thought an external link to the Public Theater might be nice.

message: Astor Place, as we know it, is dead. It's currently under major construction, rendering major points of interest and articles incorrect. How should we handle this? http://evgrieve.com/2013/09/five-years-later-astor-place-apparently.html  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Flintmichigan (talk • contribs) 16:35, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: "Astor Place as we know it is dead" is opinion, analysis and interpretation, which we don't allow per WP:OR.  Get a reliable source (i.e. not a blog) for what the city actually plans to do, and put that in the article (with the source) as what is planned, but do not change what it currently is until it has actually changed.  Also, describe the plan, but do not interpret its meaning or impact. Beyond My Ken (talk) 21:46, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Your alarmism is totally uncalled for.  The city's official plan shows quite clearly that the Alamo Cube will not be removed, instead the plaza will be expanded southward.  Astor Place will stop at Lafayette and not continue to Third Avenue. The sidewalk north of Cooper Union's Foundation building will be expanded, the Astor Place subway plaza will be enhanced and redesigned, Fourth Avenue below 9th Street and the west side of Cooper Square will be converted into bus-only use, and a new plaza will be created on the west side of Cooper Square between 5th and 6th Avenues.  These are positive changes which will made Astor Place more pedestrian friendly and less car-oriented.  It is not the death of Astor Place "as we know it", it's the refurbishing and improvement to make it better than it was.I've added this info to the article with a link to the city's plan.
