Prose Suggestions

• On December 28, 1950, the New York City Board of Transportation issued a report concerning the construction of bomb shelters in the subway system. Five deep stations in Washington Heights, including the 181st Street station, were considered to be ideal for being used as bomb-proof shelters. The program was expected to cost $104,000,000. These shelters were expected to provide limited protection against conventional bombs, while providing protection against shock waves and air blast, as well as from the heat and radiation from an atomic bomb. To become suitable as shelters, the stations would require water-supply facilities, first-aid rooms, and additional bathrooms. Might want to mention the Cold War as the reasoning for this.

• Typically these things are addressed before the article passes. I do appreciate your doing multiple reviews, but I would appreciate it if you were more thorough. Thanks.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 23:03, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

  @Kew Gardens 613: I do the prose suggestions last because, unless the prose is so convoluted it fails 1A, they don't actually impact wether or not it passes. Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 02:45, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
