User contacted [info@mappingthegayguides.org] to inform that location of Jacques' on the map is inaccurate.

  • User suggested "79 Broadway Street, ZIP 02116" as the actual address, but address on the original guides is "87 Broadway St".
  • When geocoding both "87 Broadway St" and "79 Broadway street" we get the same spot on the map. So street address is okay.
  • Coordinates are indeed off and mapped the entry on a different region of the city.

What must be fixed:
Modify geo coordinates of Jacques in the 1965-1980 dataset to: 42.349852,-71.067436.
(verified by Google Maps and Developers Geocoder.)
