[edit] NPOV
unless someone produces a source, i'm cutting out "majority of citizens do not drive"...that seems totally anecdotal Jporcaro 20:08, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
ALSO, when I cut all that POV stuff out, I forgot to sign in...IP 141.153.157.146 was mine. I'll put it back in if someone provides a source. Jporcaro 04:39, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
It might be anecdotal about a pedestrian majority, but consider the average age of its residents over the last fifteen years and the popularity of Broadway as its central shopping district, and there's a strong case for it. Constructed as an objective entry, one might say "Bayonne has a large pedestrian-friendly shopping avenue called Broadway, with a dedicated bus service there since 1932. Furthermore, Bayonne is largely comprised of many neighborhoods with church parishes tending to anchor residents. The number of delicatessens, pizzerians, and other local shops in each neighborhood tends to support a more pedestrian population."
All of which are facts, verifiable on a map with associated population densities to prove it. Of late, new construction and the introduction of row homes (some on historical sites, thanks for that) will likely change the character of the city remarkably. Scarletknight 13:17, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Operation Se7en?
I deleted some garbage from the page that included that and wasn't relative to the topic at all. NYGiantsNYMets91 04:33, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Feral Cats
I took out the bit about the "myriad of ferral [sic] cats." It may be funny (and true) but hardly a useful piece of trivia. Mistermind 17:11, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Dress Code Controversy
Is dress policy of the Board of Ed really encyclopedic? I, for one, favor yanking out the third paragraph under Education. WhyTanFox 19:07, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
