• "The balconies are concrete slabs and largely retain their original metal railings" - Might want an as of date here
  •  Added
• "The building has a gross floor area of 387,428 square feet (35,993.2 m2).[7]" - While I can find support for this in the ref, the current reference URL points to 109 West 57 Street. Is it possible to get a URL that goes exactly to the correct building?
  •  Fixed As you may have guessed, I accidentally copied the reference from 111 West 57th Street. Epicgenius (talk) 18:55, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
• Work in a link to Terrazzo at the first mention
  •  Added
• "As of 2009, the restaurant space houses Marea, a Michelin-starred Italian and seafood restaurant" - Is there a more recent source to confirm that this is still accurate?
  •  Fixed For this wording, I meant to say that, in 2009, Marea opened within the restaurant space. On a related note, there was controversy last month over the restaurant's request to permanently expand into the courtyard. It's the New York Post, and it's not a done deal, but I'd say this is evidence the restaurant still operates there, short of me actually seeing the restaurant myself.

• "Another resident was the author Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, who lived in Manhattan from 1941 to 1943,[62] and residing at 240 Central Park South during that time" - Weird tense switch between lived and residing
  •  Fixed
• " In addition, building architect Albert Mayer lived in 240 Central Park South from 1975 until his 1981 death." - Is this the same Mayer who has been discussed previously?
  • Yes.
• "Goldberger, Paul; Dunlap, David W. (1979). The City Observed, New York: A Guide to the Architecture of Manhattan. The Visible city. Random House. p. 180. ISBN 978-0-394-50450-6." - Two questions - what does "The Visible city" signify? And second, should city be capitalized there?
  •  Removed I'm not sure how that got there. This is probably the series, but I autogenerated that particular reference.
• Remove the NRHP nomination form external link, as it just states "The PDF file for this National Register record has not yet been digitized. "
  •  Done
• Images look fine
• Sources all look reliable

Good work, placing on hold. Hog Farm _Talk 17:42, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
