Proposed move to 'Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts'

I propose that 'Lincoln Center for Performing Arts' be renamed and moved to 'Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts' to reflect its official name per http://www.lincolncenter.org/. LeRoi 14:19, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea; I have no objections.

Done. —Nightstallion (?) 08:06, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Architecture

I recall learning that the overall plan for Lincoln Center was derived from Michelangleo's plan for Capitoline Hill in Rome. If anyone information on this, I believe that it would add to the value of this page. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jaedglass (talk • contribs) 04:03, 11 May 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Why remove reference to a book about the Center??

OK, it's just be moved a bit... Viva-Verdi (talk) 16:58, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In popular culture - support removal of what is little more than trivia

"Neutrality Disputed"

What is the neutrality dispute concerning Church of St. Ignatius Loyola being affiliated to Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts? I don't quite understand what about that section may comprise the guideline for "neutral point of view."

Lincoln Center, as originally conceived, usually refers to the theaters, library and other facilities originally built in the 60's (as well as the recently built Jazz facilities). However, the Lincoln Center Festival and Great Performers series, as part of Lincoln Center Inc., often perform in these alternative venues (inc. Lynch Theater, Pope Auditorium). An argument could be made that Lincoln Center as idea goes beyond the limit of Lincoln Center as edifice. Or, they are just buildings. You decide. Aureliusweb (talk) 00:28, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The residents who used to live there

Nothing is being said here about the people who used to live in this area in the five-story brownstones, nor of the Grace Institute institute mansion that used to be situated on 60th Street between Ninth and Tenth Avenue. We're supposed to believe from this Wikipedia page that 'all went well' in the construction of Lincoln Center. However, as a former resident, I do know something about how the tenants were forced out by putting in very low-class people in some of the buildings to harass the native tenants, and I also know the particular church that really owned this property but didn't care anything at all about the residents, some of whom attended its mass services. Whoever is reading this, you be the judge and if you can, do the detective work on this story. It would be good if this story came out at last!--38.117.139.174 (talk) 21:22, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
