Is it me, or is the word "square" a lot more dignified than the word "plaza"?  How about making this "Kennedy Square", for starters?

I don't see either word as being any more dignified than the other: Times Square, DePasquale Plaza . . .  

But the Plaza Hotel in NYC is pretty dignified.

Hmm, when I think of "plaza", I think of things like that ugly chapel view thing next to garden city.  And I think of garden city.  When I think of a "square", I think of Copley or Louisburg.

Solar powered compacting trash cans have been deployed in Burnside Park, there's two or three of them. I wish they'd yank out the oil drum barrels that are littered about the area (haha, a trash can is littered).

I was just thinking while walking by recently that there's a lot more going on in that park than there used to be.
