J Hood Wright Park - Opportunity for access

Passing the J Hood wright park cliffs the other day I noticed the wall (and spikey railings) that made it relatively unclimbable have fallen/come down and been removed. This will give climbers far better access to these cliffs, as long as the nyc parks dept does not replace the fence.
We should act NOW to make sure climbers get access. I will try to contact the parks dept to figure out who to call about the plans for construction at this site.

boulder/climb descriptions

Hey Tom/everyone,

I know I haven't followed this idea in my recent additions to the wiki map. But maybe we should try to standardize the descriptions. Some quick thoughts for points to include...
location/directions/nearest subway stop(s)
height/size
ratings/topo
quality of rock (dirty, vegetation, etc)
quality of landing (grass, dog shit/glass count etc.)

Anyone else have ideas to include?
