Kenmore Square is part of WikiProject Massachusetts, an effort to create, expand, and improve Massachusetts-related articles to a feature-quality standard.

Does this article really warrant the section on the 2004 riot? It has relevance to the Victoria Snelgrove story, certainly, but even that happened outside of the square. Aside from a busted up McDonald's edifice, the disturbance seemed pretty insignificant in the long term history of Kenmore Square. Hiberniantears 17:40, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

I agree with the above comment... also, is the Citgo Sign a historical landmark or not? The article first says it is not, then a couple sentences later it says it is. Stoneice02 17:40, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merging of Kenmore Square and Fenway-Kenmore

There already are articles called Back Bay Fens, Kenmore Square and Back Bay which encompass much of this in formation – Fenway-Kenmore should either be merged with Back Bay or Kenmore Square

I recalled the merge request - thanks for your input all. Markco1 05:20, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Brookline

trivial change, but Brookline is a town, not a city. Changed article to reference "town of Brookline" rather than "city of Brookline. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 76.19.113.72 (talk) 03:17, 2 April 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Missing a chunk

What about south of Boylston west of Mass Ave? That certaintly isn't Kenmore Square or Back Bay. I'm pretty sure Kenmore Square refers to the interestion and the immediate surrounding area, not specifically the neighborhood. And Back Bay would be the east side of Mass Ave since there is a sign on Mass Ave and Boylston saying "Welcome to Back Bay." Also the Back Bay Fens is a park, not a neighborhood. You can check many apartment listings to find how many are listed as "Fenway" refering to the neighborhood discribed in the wiki article for Fenway-Kenmore.

I'm sure not too many Northeastern or Wentworth students would be pleased if you told them they were living in the Back Bay Fens/Muddy River instead of Fenway next semester.
