[edit] Merge proposal

Well, the articles were tagged with a merge proposal on November 15, two weeks as of my current writing, but no discussion has opened. I'm going to post this identical talk to the other talkpage, too.

The text on this article and the proposed merge article, 179th Street Tunnel is almost identical. The only real difference I can discern is a singular mention regarding the direction of traffic flow (eastbound on the 178th and westbound on the 179th).

Rather just than merging one into the other, and redir'ing, would there be a beneficial rename? Something like "The 178th and 179th Streets tunnels", altho that is a bit unwieldy. Yngvarr 17:36, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

• If you come up with a decent name, I'll support a merge. "The 178th and 179th Streets tunnels" doens't fly. Alansohn (talk) 19:33, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

I replied on Talk:178th Street Tunnel. In short, I support the merge with the name 178th–179th Street tunnels. Marc Shepherd (talk) 20:16, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
