New page

What was separate, disjoint pages are all merged now. I am pretty sure I got them all. Several of these probably also need quotes to credit their source. Over time, it would be nice to spruce the table with more pictures and eventually a nice layout structure. With time, with time...

If there are Neighborhoods that you want to breakout into a separate page, I would ask that you build a test page first. Please make sure you have enough content to make the breakout worthwhile. Thanks. --[[User:Infobroker|Infobroker]] ([[User talk:Infobroker|talk]]) 13:38, 21 October 2013 (PDT)

		+	: If it were up to me, Bob Kane would not be honored with a street or neighborhood name at all, an alley perhaps, or something sleazy. Gil Kane on the other hand would be exalted with great platitudes and LOTs of big buildings would constitute his area of Astro City. However, that is just my druthers, and I would not want to project them on any of the creative team. I can't deny the impact of Bob Kane's position and how lucky he was knowing Bill Finger and others.

		+	Is there a connection between Gil Kane and Wally Wood, '''JB''' other than Wood inking some of his work? <br>
		+	They're both highly influential artists and would make sense that there is an area named after them, but going by the names of the other neighborhoods it might seem as much or more likely that it is just referring to Bob Kane. The others save for a few like Torres Island and Hartley, refer more to Golden Age, pulp and early comic pioneers, which would suggest Bob Kane more. <br>
