User:Doncram: How much did the building cost--$165,000 or $250,000?Zigzig20s (talk) 19:34, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Good point, I did not notice the other mention of cost that you had put in. You can see the NRHP document i used, but i can't get to the historic newspaper source you used. The NRHP document mentions the 250K after a sentence stating "The space was finished with rich materials and detail s and sumptously furnished." Maybe the 250k figure includes all the finishing and furnishing? Also I interpreted the NRHP source to imply it was completed in 1921 while you stated 1922, maybe i was wrong in my interpretation. Feel free to edit the article to reflect the contradiction of sources, perhaps using a footnote, or otherwise edit out mention of one or the other. --Doncram (talk) 19:44, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
"Construction work began in March 1921" but it does not say when it was completed. Probably later the same year and the bank moved into the building in January 1922?Zigzig20s (talk) 20:28, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I fixed it. I also fixed the chronological order.Zigzig20s (talk) 20:45, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
