GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
If you disagree with any of my suggestions, please feel free to discuss the issue. Once complete, I will be claiming this review for points in the 2018 Wikicup. Argento Surfer (talk) 20:16, 13 April 2018 (UTC)
- Is it well written?
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
- Lead
- no concern - nice work.
- History
- "He ran the country's first pencil factory in Midtown East" - You mean it was the first pencil factory anywhere in the country, right? I suggest "In Midtown East, he ran the country's first pencil factory from..."
- Design
- "The serene courtyard garden" - Is this adjective necessary? If kept, I think it should be attributed to the writer of ref #2.
- "Though, common to startups,[12] the building follows an open plan " - Awkward structure here. I suggest "The building follows an open plan common to startups,[12] ... to share, though there are alternative..."
- Construction and opening
- "The architect gave a public tour..." - I suggest using Sondresen's name here.

All in-line citations are from reliable sources, including those for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons—science-based articles should follow the scientific citation guidelines:

- @Argento Surfer, thanks! Addressed the above. Re: repeating the architect's name, I prefer to use the generalized term when the name isn't necessary—unless, of course, the issue is the ambiguity of the phrase "the architect", given the other designers involved. I don't think it would be, though. (I wouldn't expect the general reader to remember Sondresen as the architect several paragraphs later.) Anyway, added clarification.
