What is this? It seems to be framing an empty patch of woodland, and the relations are untagged.

Oops. Fixed.

oops - fixed

(Those tags didn't even belong to the tower, they were on a nearby road in a layer that I was using for a visual reference. No idea how they got copied-and-pasted onto the tower.)

End result is a better boundary for the parks than what was there before it got broken, so it's all good!

Sorry for the tone. I was tired, and I've spent too many hours fixing up damage from people who've thought that whatever goverrnment data set they've got is better than what's already in OSM and simply imported over top of things. @ke9tv/diary/42951 is a tiny example of how deep that rabbit hole goes!

Can the mapper that made this change please explain to me what it was trying to do other than create invalid multipolygons? I can fix the multipolygons (and I want to, because I now have better data available from the state), but I can't make out whether there was some other substantive change that needs to be preserved. There's no comment on the changeset.

I see the data source as 'Adirondack Atlas', which is a copyrighted source and therefore violates the policy of "don't copy from other maps without permission" (I searched the wiki and the Imports archive for discussion).
I replaced the data that appear to come from Adirondack Atlas with data from New York State DEC, which are open. I don't ordinarily import from that source because the data quality is highly variable, but I didn't want to let the copyright problem stand.
