[edit] Article name
The Secretary of the Interior seems to have "renamed" Columbia Island to "Lady Bird Johnson Park" in 1968. But even the National Park Service has some references to "Columbia Island" (such as "Columbia Island Marina [1]) and it is probably more common, so I made no effort to change the article name. If the island had been renamed "Lady Bird Johnson Island" perhaps it would be different.
Anyway, as the island and the park are coterminous, it seems right to have just one article for both, for now. — Eoghanacht talk 14:50, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
