@Cards84664 do you have a WP:RS that backs up renaming the article? The original architectural plans call it Bartow. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:52, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@RoySmith: Per this January 1930 Official rail guide, page 73, table 19. Cards84664 17:18, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Cards84664 Do you have any more insight into when/why the name change happened? Sometime between 1910 (architectural plans date) and 1930 rail guide, the name changed. It looks like City Island was changed from Minefer's Island in the mid-late 1700s. Wil540 art (talk) 15:31, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
