message: I may be wrong but I think they have the wrong county highlighted for Blair County. I think they have Cambria highlighted. Blair is the one to the right and shaped like a teddy bear. If I'm right, maybe someone who is a member can contact them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.3.2.130 (talk) 19:14, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

message: I was surprised by the designation of Downtown Altoona as encompassing everything out to 6th Ave. I was raised and lived in Altoona for 30 years and the eastern boundary of Downtown was always the tracks (and 10th Avenue). My mother grew up on 8th and 9th Avenues (Little Italy) and neither she nor her family ever considered that neighborhood part of Downtown.  Jayjaybear (talk) 20:51, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

message: In the article it says that Juniata's downtown is N. 2nd street. It would actually be N. 4rth avenue  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.224.109.235 (talk) 17:59, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

message: What possible reason does this neighborhood have for warranting its own article? It is the only neighborhood with an article, and furthermore information is repetitive and that which isn't repetitive is contradictory to the Altoona Dutch Hill section.

message: Just to clarify, we're not gonna change the page title to Morgan Spurlock's movie, right? It's notable enough to include in the article, but I hope a temporary joke/publicity stunt is not actually worth a name change. Rowsdower45 (talk) 22:13, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

message: Someone used a source that only went back to 1948 and so I tried to add a second one that went back further (I live in Altoona, so I know our climate records were much more impressive than the ones listed). However the box is fucked up now. Can someone who actually knows what they're doing with HTML fix this?
