Area or Road

Not really an 'area' anymore is it? People don't say I live in East Smithfield, only they live *on* East Smithfield...Paulbrock (talk) 00:47, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The road is the sole 'remainder' of the historic district. As a road, there's not a lot to say about it; as an historic district there's rather a lot. cheers Kbthompson (talk) 11:03, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
