The article previously stated, in reference to Arch Street:

The adjacent street was even renamed to honor the intricately crafted archway.

this is not true; the street was known as Arch long before this, due to a much older bridge which carried Arch Street over Front Street which included arches in its construction. Deleted. Izzycat 03:55, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Unsourced statement

Regarding this statement:

  • In the years following, city residents and fans have expressed regret that the stadium was not located in Center City. As a result many view (fairly or unfairly) Chinatown and the PCDC as obstructionist and selfish.

It's unsourced and it's POV. But I'll let other editors have a few days to try to find a source before I delete it. If there's nothing to support the statement, it should be deleted. --- Hong Qi Gong 15:59, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
