Google Maps bug[edit]

Apparently Google Maps thinks that the neighborhood's ZIP code, 10308, is located in upstate Schenectady, instead of in Staten Island. UPI article. Try it yourself. Probably too trivial and not notable to mention in the Wikipedia article though, right? ~ Quacks Like a Duck (talk) 14:42, 26 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This was fixed awhile ago. --Patrug (talk) 07:43, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Notable former resident(s), needing ref(s)[edit]

Musician Eric Blackwood (born Eric Pastore, brother of actor Garry Pastore) was raised in Great Kills. If someone can find a reliable published source for the info, then we can add him to the Notable People section. —173.68.139.31 (talk) 21:05, 18 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Also, Great Kills has surely been home to several notable athletes from List of people from Staten Island#Sports, and many other people from that page. When there are published sources placing them in GK, we can add their names to Great Kills#Notable people. —173.68.139.31 (talk) 14:34, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
