I'm trying to track down how and where the wrong name came from. I've only found two references two it:

https://geonames.usgs.gov/apex/f?p=gnispq:3:0::NO::P3_FID:1069826

and an obit for the namesake, https://buffalonews.com/1990/02/24/james-gavin-war-hero-dies/

The Geonames one references:

"Meigs County Pioneer and Historical Society. Meigs County, Ohio History Book. Pomeroy, Ohio: The Society, 1979. p98"

which I'll try and track down.

I've now connected the newly added lines to the larger line that they spliced into. Let me know if that's incorrect.

How did you determine the park boundary?

Given the vast amount of sidewalks still to be entered, and the difficulty of precisely identifying the centerline from aerial imagery in many cases, I think I'll continue my habit of entering them as extending up to the lowered kerbs (although I will tag crossings not as sidewalk). Let me know if you have further comments, and thank you again for all your work!

That mostly makes sense. To simplify mapping, I've been entering sidewalks as continuous lines -- but I can see how it is more strictly accurate to tag only the actual concrete walkways as "sidewalk" and tag crossings otherwise. It appears the connection parts you are tagging as "footway" represent the distance between the lowered kerb and the sidewalk centerline. Is that correct?

I'm confused by why you drew the sidewalks at the intersection of Pine & Boren the way you did. They render as if the sidewalks and crosswalks don't actually connect, which doesn't seem right. But I may be missing something, so I thought I'd ask first!

I think the geometry change you made to the "Cabrini Medical Tower (236757190)" was wrong; it's a tall tower, and quite a bit of the imagery is misleading due to that.

Er, I'm not sure what you meant by that?

66077401 over 6 years ago

Thank you for letting me know. Would you prefer such corrections be done in smaller batches (so the bounding box is smaller) (including individually), or just ignoring unused and obviously typo'ed tags unless there is another reason to change the object they are on, or something else?

I think you broke the multpolygon osm.org/relation/8793609 with this edit...

Now fixed in osm.org/changeset/66116123

What happened to 5th Ave here? Could you fix that, please.

I think the topo layer is slightly mis-aligned, but not significantly. But it clearly shows a much larger number of lines running along Alaskan Way -- they should probably get added, and these spurs connected to them, rather than to the Elliot Bay Trail bike path. But that's work for another day (and hopefully with more historic map sources).

52313455 over 7 years ago

Thanks, I see it now, and agree with tagging it as railway=razed.

52313455 over 7 years ago

I'm confused by this Way you added: osm.org/way/527122534/history#map=19/47.61029/-122.34755

It runs straight across water, and there does not seem to be any visible evidence of it in the imagery that I can see. I thought I'd ask first, but if I don't hear back, I'll probably remove it in a few days.

56076297 over 7 years ago

Ah, thanks -- this was my first multipolygon, so I wasn't sure what did and didn't need to be done.

48547278 over 7 years ago

Er, merged the newly created node for 206 Burger, I mean.

48547278 over 7 years ago

Merged this with existing address node: 2159322575

Done, thanks for responding!

I don't think this block of 20th Avenue (337739268) is one-way. The Bing imagery shows cars parked both ways, and other map services allow routing both ways on it. If I don't hear otherwise in a day, I'll make the change.
