[edit] Map

The dot on the map is in the wrong place, on my screen at least. I'm not sure how the map works as it appears the dot is superimposed on the background map, though. 143.252.80.100 11:17, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sentence Order

This paragraph in the introduction seems rather awkward:

Le Havre was once synonymous with urban coldness and grayness. The city is spoken of now as the Brasilia of France. Le Havre's home port code is LH. The city's inhabitants have done much to change this, and it has been marked by improvement since then.

I doubt any Harvais every really cared about their "home port code." They would probably be more interested in being pereiced as less cold and gray. Also, I think we need to clarify the Brasilia reference.
