I propose merging Lincoln Tunnel Helix into New Jersey Route 495. I think the content in the former can easily be explained in the context of the latter, and a merger would not cause any article-size or weighting problems in the 495 article. Needforspeed888 ( talk) 18:35, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

Hello Djflem, I just wanted to explain some of the edits for LTH I made regarding the view of Manhattan, because, well, I can tell you didn’t concur with them. And compare my 410 edits on Wikipedia to your 100K+ edits and the fact you (I think?) live in Hudson County and I don’t (I’m in Wayne in Passaic), so I respect that you have the higher knowledge in this area, and I won’t try to make a huge thing over this or “convince” you to keep such changes. First- the original sentence was “…has partially blocked the view from the lower portion of the roadway.” This edit was not made by me. I changed it to “bottom of the roadway” as I though it had a better flow to it. About the trees, I included this because a look at a satellite view of the helix (and streetview) shows that trees surround the first half of the eastbound descent, making it hard to see NY, and then there’s the apartment buildings… my point was that this idea of a panorama view driving down the helix was deteriorating, I suppose.
I know this was wordy but please don’t take it as I’m mad at you or anything, just hope that you understand. :)
P.S.- should I capitalize Helix or no? Jason Ingtonn ( talk) 03:51, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
