Just a thought, SPUI: can you think of a traffic circle that you could write an article worthy of Featured Article status? I ask this in a constructive way, because a very irrefutable argument to anyone who writes on AfD to the effect "This is only an X, & all X is non-notable. Delete" is "Well, Y is an X, & it is a *FEATURED ARTICLE*!!!"[*]
If I had better access to historical records, I might be able to do that for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonnelle_Circle . It's a very busy intersection, located on the Route 1 Extension, considered by many to be the first "super highway" in the United States.
Honestly, my memory sucks right now. I'm not trying to be flippant: Isn't there a famous traffic circle or two worthy of featured article status in London, England? Perhaps one in Paris, France or Rome, Italy as well?
