New Hampshire box[edit]

I would like to remove the NH box from the article - it is enormous, and seems inappropriate here, since it provides links to municipalities. Any objections? - DavidWBrooks 15:29, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OK, it's done. - DavidWBrooks 13:34, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

BestBuy?[edit]

Where did this BestBuy rumor come from? With nothing citing it's origin, it seems a little far fetched speaking that there is already a BestBuy 0.68 miles (MapQuest) away on the same road (220 DW Highway)... just asking out of curiosity.

Good point. We shouldn't print rumors anyways - I've removed it. - DavidWBrooks 12:51, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Old Signs and drive-in[edit]

I think I may put in a note (does anyone have a picture? probably not) of the old style pheasant signs that were there originally (and on the billboard) and make a note of the drive in that was there previously.

The MA Border[edit]

I always thought the bit about the building shape being altered to make sure that the stores were completely in NH was suburban legend on the grounds that the border was actually farther South, but the satellite view in Google Maps actuall shows the MA border actually running through Sears, the southern mall entrance, and JC Penney. So now I'm wondering... is Google Maps inaccurate, or did they try to keep the buildings in NH and actually miss!? Rhsatrhs (talk) 18:55, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It looks to me like the pavement change is south of Google Map's border as well, so although I'm not sure, I bet the border is wrong on the map. CSZero (talk) 03:03, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that it's probably the border that's shown wrong on Google. If the border is from the USGS 7-1/2 minute topographic maps, it could be off by the distance shown. (If there had been monumentation identified by the USGS anywhere near there, the line probably would have been closer.) If you go to the city of Nashua's live GIS, they depict the state boundary just missing the mall building.--Ken Gallager (talk) 13:17, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to seem so stupid to reply 4 1/2 years later, but I was at this place the other day and Google Maps is known for being inaccurate on state line fronts. I walked along the state line in front of Sears too, and made some photos about it. It approaches close to the Sears door though. 98.216.164.187 (talk) 01:36, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Erroneous reference to Kessler Farm[edit]

I am removing the article text "The mall site, formerly the Kessler Farm, was..." because it is clearly contradicted by this footnoted reference: Jeannine T. Levesque (January 3, 1980). "Vote On Kessler Farm Mall Site Challenged". The Nashua Telegraph: pp. 1, 6.

The referenced article is talking about two competing rezoning actions, one of which had been turned down and the other approved. It is clear in the article that the Kessler Farm rezoning had been approved, but a petition had been made for a rehearing. The article refers to "a competing proposal to rezone land on the Daniel Webster Highway South", and mentions Yankee Greyhound as one of the petitioners against the Kessler Farms rezoning. Another of the petitioners against the Kessler Farms rezoning is listed as Evelyn O. Hartford of Pheasant Lane. And the petition mentions traffic congestion on Amherst Street as one of the reasons for rehearing the Kessler Farms rezoning. And one of the condo complexes up at Exit 8 is known as Kessler Farms.

I can remember with 100% certainty that before Pheasant Lane was there it was a drive-in movie theatre, not a farm (unless that's some name for the property, rather than an actual farm) unless the farm was there before the drive-in. 66.189.38.183 (talk) 06:15, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
