GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:Petrillo Music Shell/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Reviewer: Mikemoral (talk · contribs)

Construction on the wood and fiber E. V. Buchsbaum design began on a budget of $12,500 ($178,618 in current dollar terms), and the opening of free concerts commenced on August 24, 1931.
Just as a general note, the MOS says to include the type of dollars, but I'm assuming that it would be US dollars. The phrase "current dollar terms" could probably be better worded as "in today's dollars" or something similar.

In 1953 a referendum was almost held on the November 3 Election Day ballot for a $3 million ($24.4 million in current dollar terms) structure, but at the last minute a bond issue was denied.
Again, the phrase "current dollar terms" is still somewhat awkward, in my opinion.

I must apologize, but real life has caught up with my Internet time. Unfortunately, I will be unable to complete the GA review until I’m done with RL stuff. —Mike moral ♪♫ 02:03, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
