Hi @trigpoint.

Firstly I would like to state that the addition of the point is something which would be a separate discussion as I never added the label originally. I agree the term "Central Retail District" doesn't necessarily exist in Manchester, and it wouldn't surprise me if the original person who added it coined it from an unacceptable source.

If we were to keep this label, Manchester Council refer to it as the "Retail Core" as part of their regeneration plans, provided in the link below.

My original placement was to avoid it being on top of the Manchester Arndale, and to acknowledge that this retail area extends further west also. On reflection after seeing the tiles regenerate, I feel it could be adjusted again more centrally on Market Street, but not on top of the Arndale building.

Hope the above information provides more context, and apologies for the lack of links on the original edit.

Hi trigpoint (Phil)
Please revert my changes, and apologies for the inconveniences.

I was incorrectly guided by local knowledge from the shopping centre next door which at the time I felt was sufficient source evidence. The devils advocate comment around Google is irrelevant on my behalf, and I retract that previous statement as evidence.

In future if guided externally, I will use the link provided to process questionable changes.

Many thanks

Hi there. We were given guidance from the Derbion Shopping Centre that this was incorrectly named!

I did make them aware that as a community map, if deemed incorrect that this may be altered.

To play devils advocate, on Google they refer to the area around the Bus Station as the "Cock Pitt"... and the area I have updated as Morledge. So my evidence for updating was based on those two factors.

Apologies there! Thanks for the update.

It is indeed :)

Apologies. Definitely would have been an accident if that deletion was under my changeset.

I remember editing the building part as shown in the link below, to match the other side, but never intended to delete!

I tend to agree that removing the park tag from leisure is the best course of action.

The reason I called for your assistance was because you seemed to have had some history with updating records for historic districts, and I didn't know if by removing park as a tag, I may disrupt a process of yours going forward.

Really appreciate your help on the topic!

@ZeLonewolf
Is there a particular reason why these additions of historic=district were given a leisure=park tag?
