Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This infobox is designed to put basic factual information, an image and optionally a map in an organized fashion for an 'urban feature', which is essentially anything from a public square to a public staircase, into an infobox. The infobox helps to give details to the reader in a straightforward standard manner. Use {{Template:Infobox park}} for parks.
