Although this article is more than just a stub, most of the content is either unsourced or cites the neighborhood Civic Association handbook. Newspaper results make it clear that this is a subdivision with insufficient independent coverage to meet WP:GEOLAND or WP:GNG. –dlthewave ☎ 20:04, 4 September 2021 (UTC)

- Keep insufficient Wikipedia:BEFORE. Development and the reasons for it (including early open space preservation efforts), are well documented and notable. Djflem (talk) 17:29, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
- delete Delaware Place Names describes it as a suburban development, which is obvious anyway. The accessibility of non-trivial local content is not enough, and while this may be a relatively early case of a certain type of development, we need a source of national scope, such as a research paper on the subject, which establishes it as a notable example of same.

- Nonsense: Wikipedia:Notability (local interests) is failed proposal. Wikipedia:AUD is the guideline. Museum archives are not trivial. And Delaware Place Names is correct in this case, and as such, is another good reference. Djflem (talk) 21:39, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- Keep per Djflem and Wikipedia:AUD. Museum archives are significant coverage, and ultimately this in conjunction with the other sources notability is established.4meter4 (talk) 02:52, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
- Keep Per above. There are significant sources to meet GNG as well as GEOLAND. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 00:25, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
