I looked this up to find info about where JFK was headed when he was shot. It reads like a company ad brochure and seems aimed at selling the place rather than providing encyclopedic information about it. It is nowhere near neutral and offers nothing beyond promotion. It's garbage that needs to be edited or deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.138.217.113 (talk) 19:03, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It needs a LOT of help; see the article on Chicago's MerchandiseMart. If not for the prohibition against primary sources, I would make time to add and attribute :(

Re: Fabrictramp's rev of 30Jul2008:

Replacing space-dash-space with en-dash (–) is hardly making anything clearer. If replacing/interpreting the author's intent/style is Wikipedia ploicy, say so, with citation. The article on the dash does not even include this queer usage -- only an em-dash could be used without spaces (but should not, imo). I replaced with commas.

I have a hard time understanding the denigration of primary sources in this type of common (non-scientific) informational articles. Second-hand sources are never bias-free, and are not comprehensive. Preferring a reporter's interpretation to a witness's affirmation breaks my mind.

Hyperlinking common words is silly.

Infomart[edit]

Isn't Infomart considered a component of the Market Center? -- Gyrofrog (talk) 17:10, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It was built by Trammel Crow, but later sold. See Infomart —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.145.34.130 (talk) 02:32, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
