Posted by The Silence on Thu Apr 23 11:07:58 2015, in response to Neighborhood Maps, posted by italianstallion on Wed Apr 22 15:52:10 2015. The person who updated these maps didn't do the best of jobs.I've found over a dozen mistakes on the Ridgewood Map alone. The Ridgewood Theater (not Cinema #1) has been closed for years and is being gutted for an apartment building but is still listed (#2) Post offices are all wrong The Ridgewood Post office is not on Cypress Avenue, it's at Myrtle and Decatur. The "Glendale post office" shown is a "Finance branch". Glendale shares 11385 with Ridgewood. The post office is also on the next block, next door to the famed Zum Stammtisch german restaurant. And if the Glendale branch gets shown, why are they leaving out the branch on Woodbine Street of Fresh Pond? Schools & Churches St. Aloysius School (DeKalb & Seneca) was closed in 2009, demolished and a City school is currently being built in it's place. St. Aloysius itself is on the other side of Stanhope. It anchors the Stockholm Street Historic District. St. Pancras School is across the street from it's associated church, not on the same block. Holy Cross School closed in the mid-2000s. Does not show my grade school at all, formerly Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal, now Notre Dame Catholic Academy. The Maspeth Jewish Center on Grand Ave is across the street and a block over from where it's shown (the noted location is a Key Food) The United Presbyterian Church of Ridgewood moved from 60th place (where they moved to I never found out) and a Coptic Orthodox church moved in. the B13 terminates at DeKalb, not Stanhope. What the map denotes as "Starr Playground" is the not open to the public athletic field for Grover Cleveland High School. The real Star Playground is not even actually shown as a park. |
