Reason:
Best representative image, I think. According to en:First Avenue (Manhattan), "First Avenue passes through a variety of mostly residential neighborhoods." -- cmadler (talk) |
Comment Since the Avenues are very long, I suggest the logical separation „North” and „South” as the streets in Manhattan are defined as „west” and „east”. The image you suggest, I think, is with no sure location. To be a competitor it has to be from a north side. It seems to me that you put an accidental camera location somewhere on the 1st Avenue. This alone throw off the present candidate. Secondly, what is written in the articles in the wikipedia is not a valid ground of opposition since it is disputable. We should supply the best photos of the area and that's all. I think the photos are more reliable source of information than an article though this article don't defines if the residential buildings alongside the avenue are high-rises or not. It speaks generally about the area in wider meaning. There are also residential high-rises. The other photo clearly shows not just three or four attractive skyscrapers but considerable part of the avenue in the Upper East Side with almost 50% density of high-rises. I think that the other photograph is very informative about the North part of this avenue.--MrPanyGoff 14:25, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I think that your photograph is taken in East Village or Lower East Side which is „First Avenue South”. Actually, the article mostly alludes to exactly this part of Manhattan. Your image is a good candidate for the scope First Avenue South, Manhattan. Another possible scope is „First Avenue Center” where the United Nations skyscraper rules.--MrPanyGoff 14:37, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry, perhaps I misunderstood the scope you used. Is it common to designate sections of Manhattan avenues as "North" or "South", and if so, what street forms the dividing line? A quick Google search turns up no support for such a designation, but if that is a suitable designation, the scopes can be so named and each image moved to a normal candidacy. cmadler (talk) 14:56, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- The scope is not required to be an official name. We should provide useful searchable stuff. The word „North“ here has the same function as „exterior“, „interior“, „general view“ which we add to the buildings. It is a clarifying fragment whose purpose is to clarify and narrow the otherwise broad scope. So, no matter how many people use the expression, the same as „Livorno Cathedral, exterior“. You know, nobody use the last one but this is our official layout for scope names. Would you accept it easier if the scope is „First Avenue, Manhattan (north)“? --MrPanyGoff 08:10, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- The difference is that terms like "interior" and "exterior" are (usually) unambiguous. In this case, where is the line between "north" and "south"? The other photo says it's taken from the Roosevelt Island bridge, which is between 59th and 60th Streets; 1st Avenue runs from 1st Street to 126th Street, so by a simple split of 1st Avenue, anything below about 63rd Street -- including both these photos -- is in the southern half. Looking at the entire island, the midpoint is at least that far north, and probably farther. cmadler (talk) 13:04, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
