There's one of these in Elmira too. It only shows up when I select "Show Map Data", which gives me this when I click on the link: http://openstreetmap.org/browse/way/27240113 I picked "amenity=public_building, name=Bandstand" since JOSM didn't offer anything more appropriate. I'll be happy to change it to something better. BTW, purists will insist that a bandstand is not a bandshell. The bandstand is a raised platform, possibly with a roof, but a bandshell is a stage with an acoustic scoop behind it. --Bob. -- -- -- -- Bob Jonkman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://sobac.com/sobac/ SOBAC Microcomputer Services Voice: +1-519-669-0388 6 James Street, Elmira ON Canada N3B 1L5 Cel: +1-519-635-9413 Software --- Office & Business Automation --- Consulting _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
