[edit] History
Great job on the history section, 4.13.47.141. I added some small stuff, but it's really good already. The stuff about the buildings was unclear to me. I tried to separate out the city hall/Granite Building from the library and the city charter, but I'm not sure I got it right. -Willmcw 23:34, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Order
I moved the Upton Sinclair House notation into the history section. It didn't seem to belong at the top of the page. If someone knows the dates he lived at the house it would be nice to include those and place the item correctly in the timeline. Jjinfoothills 20:56, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Filming in Monrovia...
OK, who's the person who rewrote the section on filming in Monrovia?
And why was a "citation needed" for this fact?
It doesn't matter now, since this morning, there was a film crew doing a scene for the new ABC series "October Road" in front of historic Boxx Jewelers...please reinstate this original story of how the Old Town Merchants Association has all but banned filming in downtown Monrovia...thanks,Michaela92399 02:53, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
I doubt that the original story will ever be restored, Michaela...because there are a few Wikipedians in Monrovia who are determined to control what we(the public) say about Old Town:only nice, "sugar-coated" pablum regarding the changes(mostly upscale) to Myrtle Avenue...sigh...Baldwin91006 16:59, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
I'd like to know who in Monrovia gets all the moolah from all these filmings. It happens so often, that its hard to believe the downtown businesses don't benefit at least something from all the tapings that interupt our lives. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Oh mighty isis (talk • contribs) 04:29, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
