Overall: Hello @Epicgenius: and thank you for expanding this article! Before passing, I do have one minor concern with the page, which otherwise looks good in terms of DYK requirements. Could you add a citation somewhere in the article that states that the building is eighteen stories? This is in the lede and infobox, but there's no mention in the actual body of the article citing this. Super minor, I know, but it's the kind of thing I like to look out for, and everything else in the lede seems to be well cited in the body. Once this is settled, I have no problem passing ALT1, which I think is the most interesting. Cheers! Johnson524 20:39, 23 December 2023 (UTC)

@Johnson524 and Morgan695: Thanks to both of you for your reviews. I must've forgotten to add a citation for the 18-story detail; this has now been fixed. Epicgenius (talk) 20:48, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
@Epicgenius: Looks good now! Thank you for your high-quality work on Wikipedia: the article was the most enjoyable read on a building I've seen in awhile 🙂 Johnson524 20:53, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
