Talk:George Wright Golf Course

This extraordinary course was my first introduction to golf. We lived on the large sand hill to the northeast of the George Wright, and used to sneak onto the course as kids to avoid paying the $4 or so greens fees.

The clubhouse is absolutely not to be believed, the closest thing to a Norman Castle I have seen in North America.

Hyde Park/Roslindale and Zip Codes
The golf course is equally split between Hyde Park and Roslindale, in that holes 1-9 lie in Roslindale and 10-18 are in Hyde Park. The line between the neighborhoods is where Poplar Street becomes West Street. More evidence of this is inside the course itself, where an old boundary stone marks the border of West Roxbury (which then included Roslindale) and Hyde Park, at the time towns independent of Boston. The thing to remember about Zip Codes is that they are simply a tool of the USPS to assist them in delivering the mail more efficiently, and do not mark or always correspond to city, town (or in this case) neighborhood borders. In many cases Zip Codes even cross state lines. The USPS spells all of this out on their website. The Boston Redevelopment Authority (or whatever their current name is) and realtors also publish maps which change over time depending on what the current agenda happens to be. Unfortunately places like Google Maps gets much of its information from these unofficial sources! Carfare (talk) 02:10, 1 August 2018 (UTC)
