Or should this be Murray Hill, New York City? Either form seems reasonable...
If anyone really knows all the NYC neighborhoods well it might be worthwhile to standardize a format. I think most viewers are either residents or, like me, prospective residents. A standard box showing neighborhood borders, subway and bus service, etc. would be appreciated in addition to history sections. Wish I knew enough to help with that though. -- Mister Tattle 01:59, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
How about some information about the actual neighborhood itself, instead of the history of the family for whom it's named? -- Michael J. West
All of these sound like good ideas...I can try to put a bit together on Murray Hill as I have some forty years familiarity with the area, but I don't have a lot on other neighborhoods in Manhattan. Doc 03:56, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
The general explanation of how alphanumeric telephone numbers worked is out of place here, mainly because it belongs in an article about the history of telephone service. Moreover, the "MUrray Hill" exchange name isn't the best example; those unfamiliar with old number formats might think the "H" had to be worked into the number also.

Bold text== Who's a New Yorker? ==
Since the late 1990s, however, many professional New Yorkers in their twenties and thirties have begun to move into the area.
How are these people New Yorker's? Because they moved from another state, maybe went to college in the area and decided to stay? That's very lenient to say who's a New Yorker. This implies that New Yorker's, from either other boroughs or the metropolitan area moved into Murray Hill. Maybe that's true for a few people, but the majority, like anywhere else in lower Manhattan or Mid-Town, is predominantly of young profession out-of-state born white American's and wealthy foreigners. I'll be revising this to say out of state born. According to the U.S. Census, within U.S. citizens, 62 percent of residents in Manhattan were born in the state of New York. Above 96th street consists of half of Manhattan's probably. It's probably about 80-85 percent native there, while it's about 35-40 below, which includes Murray Hill.

Your own municipal leaders seem to disagree with you. Who said you have to be a native? If you've been there long enough to say you live there, you can call yourself a New Yorker or Angeleno or what have you. I do recognize that the question of "how long is long enough?", in itself, can be a contentious other issue. Yet I'm sure most people would concede that moving somewhere for college and then staying on at least a few years would be sufficient. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pithecanthropus ( talk • contribs) 01:52, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
@ Beyond My Ken: Can you please explain why you described this edit as disruptive? I don't see any blatantly unconstructive edits in that revision. All I did was add a reference, shift some sentences in the "20th Century" section so that we don't have a list of structures in the middle of the section describing the subject's history, moved some further reading links to the references section, and formatted the "Diplomatic missions" sections for extra spaces. Are there other, flagrant issues with this addition? Epicgenius ( talk) 00:08, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
BTW, my edit didn't introduce an Asian POV. The sentence about Curry Hill is the same length as before. Epicgenius ( talk) 02:05, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
Could anyone please post a map of this borrough, marking the location in NYC? Thank you in advance, Matteo -- 151.42.188.220 ( talk) 18:37, 28 November 2015 (UTC)

Feels like an article candidate: Murray Farm, aka Inclenberg. Distinct from the Murray Farm in Tennessee.
Photograph shows of a plaque on a wall. It reads, "This tablet marks the geographic center of the farm known in Revolutionary days as 'Inclenberg,' owned by Robert Murray whose wife, Mary Lindley Murray (1726-1782), rendered signal service in the Revolutionary War. Erected by Mary Murray Chapter Daughters of The American Revolution 1926".

I don't know where to find property maps from the 1750s--but would love to find out! -- CmdrDan ( talk) 18:57, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
