• I'm unclear how building an office building can be speculative? Certainly purchasing land can be and often is...
  • I clarified that it is a speculative development. It wasn't built with a specific tenant in mind, but that might be something better suited for the link to the "speculative development" page. epicgenius (talk) 18:41, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
• Maybe add a note to the lede about uncertainty wrt number of stories?
  •  Done
• : now mostly concealed," Worth saying what by?
  •  Removed I only included this because modern sources were unable to ascertain whether this fact was still true. epicgenius (talk) 18:41, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
• " than previous buildings" than most?
  •  Added
• "the building contained five elevators" Perhaps "fire elevators were added to the building"?
  • Hmm, not sure about this. The proposed wording makes it sound like five more elevators were added besides the existing elevators. However, the source says there are five elevators total, which is a marked decrease from its peak of 14-18 elevators. I reworded it to "the building has had five elevators". epicgenius (talk) 18:41, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
• "e 41 Broad Street, "one of the most expensive coal chutes in this country"" who is being quoted?

• Images are suitable licenced
• Earwigs suggests this is clear, no indication otherwise in my spotchecks
• Sources are reliable, check comes up almost clean except for one clarification that I went ahead and added to the article. Additionally, the Emporis source gives it's height as 276.55
  • That is weird. I swore I saw it say something else, but I might chalk that down to confusion. epicgenius (talk) 23:57, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

  • @Eddie891: Thanks for the review. I have fixed that issue now. epicgenius (talk) 23:57, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
    • Short review, but I'm not seeing anything else that needs addressing. Passing. Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 00:02, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
