Syracuse University Buildings

I was wondering if I could recruit some people from this project to help work on the List of Syracuse University buildings article. As of now, I've been the primary contributor to it, since its creation in December and there's still a significant amount of information that needs to be added. Any help would be great. --ZeWrestler Talk 06:21, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Some given, but still mainly Zewrestler's work to date. doncram (talk) 02:34, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
Beyond doncram's help, there's been no work on this article besides me since Feb. May someone please lend a hand and put in building descriptions? --ZeWrestler Talk 14:48, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

New York State Route 175

New York State Route 175 has been nominated for FA status. Given it goes through Syracuse, I've added it to this project. Please take a look at the article and comment as appropriate.--ZeWrestler Talk 02:04, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Article is now an FA--ZeWrestler Talk 04:51, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
    • Thanks for pointing out that it was FA. I went to look at it there and found an article for Route 174, also FA. I added it to this wikiproject. Lvklock (talk) 05:41, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Highschool

Robert Park (football coach), born 1880, attended the "Grammar and High School of Syracuse, New York", according to a biographical sketch (written 1930) that I have of him. Any idea which highschool this is today? And if so, would you please correct the listing in his article? Nyttend (talk) 14:58, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

This would be my best guess. [1] Lvklock (talk) 17:58, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
I wonder if your 1930 sketch source has other Flowery or Otherwise Unusually Capitalized Phrases (FOUCP) that are not proper nouns. Could it just be an idiosyncratic (from our perspective now) way of writing, "he attended grammar school and then high school in Syracuse, New York"? Anyhow, I don't know of any proper noun school of the name "Grammar and High School of Syracuse". doncram (talk) 19:51, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
