Talk:South Norwalk, Connecticut

Location

The location section, and most of this article, is describing the SoNo district (Washington Street and the surrounding blocks) and says nothing about the neighborhood as a whole (the actual neighborhood streches from I-95 to the water).

The 2nd Taxing District borders are as follows: North: From Connecticut Ave. near I95 exit 14 through Mathews Park to the Norwalk River. South: from Windsor Place on a line to South Main St. near the intersection of Meadow St. and on a line to Norwalk River. East: Through Norwalk River. West: From Connecticut Ave. near I95 exit 14 on a line to Windsor Place.^[1] StephenTS42 22:17, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Sculpture Race

Information on the kinetic sculpture race at the SoNo arts festival? Not sure if it still goes on. JMS1225 14:22, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

On 3 Aug 2008 there was a "puppet parade" with participants in colorful Papier-mâché masked costumes, accompanied by costumed drummers. The puppet parade also took place in 2007. 67.86.73.252 (talk) 00:22, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Two pictures of the Methodist church?

Does the gallery for this article need two pictures of the Methodist church from scans of a 1910 postcard? If it does not could one be removed? I favor the later one (listed last) but could accept the original just as easily. 67.86.73.252 (talk) 00:16, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the worse pic and nominated it for deletion. Thanks for pointing it out. -- Noroton (talk) 16:00, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bulldog

As of September 2008 the Bulldog Bar & Grill (formerly Donovan's) is closed and will apparently reopen as an Italian restaurant with a different name in the future. 67.86.73.252 (talk) 00:37, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The new restaurant is called "Donovan & Mackenzie's" and opened at the end of January or beginning of February 2009 review 17 Feb 2009. Newspaper stores at the Norwalk Hour, The Advocate (article no longer on web), Wilton Villager, [1], and [2] 67.86.73.252 (talk) 23:04, 21 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Unsubstantiated text regarding new ownership and photos (removed from article and placed below for discussion:

In 2006, Richie Ball sold it to Ron and Dominique Rosa, two Greenwich, Connecticut restaurateurs. The Rosas removed about 80 percent of the roughly 200 photographs of boxers that had lined the walls in order to spread them around to two other bars they planned to open.^[1]^{[citation not found]}

I could not find any reference to this material. Also, the supposed writer's name of the article is misspelled Stelloh, Tom. Probably just a typo error for 'Tim Stelloh' who has contributed to the 'Stamford Advocate', not the 'Advocate of Stamford. >> StephenTS42 21:24, 2 September 2015 (UTC) <<
