I always hate being pedantic about someone's perfectly good article when I didn't do a damn thing to contribute to it. :) However, to be very precise, the "Gay Pride Festival" takes place annualy at Druid Hill Park, outside of Mt. Vernon. The parade, block party, and almost every other event in connection with Pride Weekend happens in Mt. Vernon, though. I am going to try to unobtrusively reword the article to be technically correct. kdogg36 21:03, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Yes, a big portion is in a National Historic Landmark District, the Mount Vernon Place Historic District, which is centered on the Washington Monument by Robert Mills. It includes the four parks radiating out from it, and buildings on their sides and more, seems possibly mainly a big rectangle. [1] It was listed in 1971. Refnum is 71xxxx. It was designated NHLD then too. It is approximately a rectangle four blocks north south, and three blocks east-west, centered on the monument, which rises 156 ? ft
This NPS page titled Mount Vernon Place Historic District is no help whatsoever. Is there an old NHL page?
Page 9s map shows it outlined, labelled "Mount Vernon Historic and Architectural District" conforming to property bounds described. It overlaps with a Mount Vernon project p9 Also there are various? Mount Vernon urban renewal areas, one for acquisitions, one
NRHP DOC boundaries: Property bounded on the south by Hamilton Street; on the west by the alley between Cathedral Street and Park Avenue [maybe labelled Ploy St. in Google maps]; in the north by Read Street to the east end of Lot 31, following the eastern edge of Lots 31, 30, 29, 28, and 27 the northern edge of Lots,17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8 (all Block 517), crossing St. Paul Place to northern edge of Lot 21, Block 518; and on the east by Gore Alley. [which i am guessing is what's labelled Hargrove St., symmetrically across from the alley btwn Cathedral and Park Avenue, this is between St. Paul St and N. Calvert St.]
Mount Vernon Place was city's first historic district, was later NRHP-listed. [2] Maybe this is a very slow-loading page?

I am thinking it would help to name in bold, and to define briefly at least, in the lede, a number of terms:
Note currently all the redirects to this article (from "what links here" with "hide links" checked) are:
And then also what is definitive list of Baltimore City Landmarks in the NHLD and in the larger neighborhood, etc. (to be addressed partly by adding coordinates to BCL article).
Argh, User:Ɱ and/or others, are these maps/definitions of entities, etc too much for this one article to cover? Should the NHLD perhaps be split out as a separate article? It would be super great to have the overlapping areas defined mainly by use of a map which outlined them! -- Doncram ( talk) 21:03, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
I now want to split out, to a separate article, coverage of the NRHP historic district / NHLD. Like other historic district articles, this can/should go into detail of the individual buildings included in the district, probably as a table with one row per significant building, with photo and coordinates, etc. In this case certainly covering all the Baltimore City Landmarks in the district. This is too much detail for the Mount Vernon neighborhood article. On the detail level, it could fully include/cover the Mount Vernon Place Conservancy as the cruciform is entirely contained, and then cover the Flower Mart and involvement of the Women's Civic League. -- Doncram ( talk) 22:32, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
I created Washington Monument and Mount Vernon Place to define the area of the Baltimore City Landmark of that name. The monument plus four radiating parks, is where events are held by Mount Vernon Place Conservancy, can it be covered there? Perhaps with a name change? Can Mount Vernon Place (now a redirect to Mount Vernon, Baltimore) be re-redirected to this?
Are the parks actually named East Mount Vernon Place, West Mount Vernon Place, North Washington Place and South Washington Place? One or more are point locations in Google maps. Are they GNIS locations of parks? -- Doncram ( talk) 16:31, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
