When you wrote "gaping hole", we weren't sure what you meant. You
might have meant that someone removed a large chunk from the city
(either by accident or as an act of vandalism), but through your
subequent emails, it seems what you mean is "This map is incomplete",
which is really a call to action.
It's a call for you to go map!
It means you should read guides like this one:
http://learnosm.org
And use the knowledge you learn to make the map better.
There's a lot to do, sure, but the opportunities for you are out
there, and you have a large worldwide community willing to help you!
So welcome to the project! Go forth and map!
And ask questions if you have them, we're here to help.
