==Updates==
This article needs updating -- the building is no longer called "Tandy Center" but "City Place", and is no longer home to RadioShack Corp (formerly Tandy Corp). [http://www.fortwortharchitecture.com/tandy.htm]. I propose renaming this article "City Place", but there is already an article for another "[[City Place]]" which appears to just be a non-notable mall. I have ''prod''-ed that article and if necessary will take it through [[WP:AFD]]. After the article is deleted, or a decision made to keep it, we can do a move on this article. In the meantime, feel free to work on updating it -- I'm not from the D/FW area. --[[User:Tim fischer|Rehcsif]] 19:38, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

:The old City Place article is gone, so I went ahead and moved Tandy Center to City Place (with, of course, proper redirects).

Updates

[edit]

This article needs updating -- the building is no longer called "Tandy Center" but "City Place", and is no longer home to RadioShack Corp (formerly Tandy Corp). [1]. I propose renaming this article "City Place", but there is already an article for another "City Place" which appears to just be a non-notable mall. I have prod-ed that article and if necessary will take it through WP:AFD. After the article is deleted, or a decision made to keep it, we can do a move on this article. In the meantime, feel free to work on updating it -- I'm not from the D/FW area. --Rehcsif 19:38, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Not the only "private" subway in the U.S.

[edit]

Leonard's subway was the only private-sector "subway" in "south of the Mason-Dixon Line" (as contemporary newspapers stated) - but it was not the only such thing in the U.S. The Philadelphia Transportation Company, which was the 100-percent owner of the Market Street Subway, was not taken into public ownership until 1968. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.103.157.115 (talk) 07:12, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
