[edit] Which map to use?

I noticed that Howard the Duck replaced the Map of Manila with a map of congressional districts. Is this a better map? It shows clearly the location of Sta Mesa but in the red highlighted bit the map includes areas outside of Sta Mesa. I have added the Map of Manila in as another option. Maybe there is a way to better integrate it into the article. --Bruce Hall (talk) 05:21, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Dates would be helpful

It would be helpful, I think, to add in years. For instance, when was it a obra pia? When did it merge with Manila? Do we have other firm statistics like population? --Bruce Hall (talk) 05:23, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
