The following coordinate fixes are needed for Grand Army Plaza, it should be West instead of East Nevermind, it is GeoHack that is wrong, not Wikipedia
Coordinate error
{{geodata-check}}
The following coordinate fixes are needed for Grand Army Plaza, Brooklyn. The coordinates that are mapped out show the plaza as located in Far Rockaway, Queens, which is incorrect.

- Yes, it's broken, but I fail to understand how. The coords are correct, yet the map indeed shows a location across Jamaica Bay. Perhaps the locator map has an incorrect origin. Jim.henderson (talk) 04:02, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
- Done. I couldn't figure out what the problem was, either, not being familiar with the intimate workings of {{Geobox}}. (I have a feeling that although a map of NYC is displayed in the infobox, the pushpin was being positioned as if it were on a map of New York State.) Therefore, I've just positioned the damned pushpin by hand. A kludge, but at least the map looks better. Deor (talk) 20:01, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
