:Everything in the City tracts which are gridded is broken into blocks numbers. For instance, I live in Block 63 of the East King Tract. You'll notice these block numbers are part of legal property descriptions. So... we could, sure. I'm not sure how much potential content there is for such articles. Maybe we could do them but only for "important" blocks? Or maybe a [[List of City blocks]]? <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">— '''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]''' </span> 07:32, 29 March 2009 (CDT)
::Hmm. Maybe if we can find boundaries for the tracts, we could have a Google map in each with markets labeling their respective block numbers? Just a thought. <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">— '''''[[User:Admin|admin]]''''' • '''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]''''' </span> 10:19, 29 March 2009 (CDT)
:::Yeah. Definitely. Boundaries for the tracts are not too much of a problem, just takes the time to put it all together. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">— '''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]''' </span> 11:17, 29 March 2009 (CDT)
==Abbreviations==
I was originally going to make a separate list of abbreviations for each map, but, while there are some differences, many abbreviations are shared or only slightly different, i.e. "Who." vs. "Whol." for "Wholesale"... and it seems silly to duplicate, so I have made one list. Placement in the article is kind of icky because lists make a lot of whitespace. If you have any other ideas as far as implementation, I'm open. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">— '''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]''' </span> 11:17, 29 March 2009 (CDT)
