[edit] Cranberry

Is someone going to discuss Cranberry Street Tunnel? It has vanished and reappeared and vanished again. The main reason I can imagine for its existence is, it's part of the East River Crossings series. The main argument against? It's a tiny article, when it exists. But maybe others have other ideas for or against. Anyway it's silly just to keep reverting each other. In case it may be bear on the question, I hope to snap a relevant photograph before wild strawberry season opens. Jim.henderson (talk) 22:20, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
