Interesting "under construction", on good sources, subscription sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. I am not yet happy with the hook. Do you intentionally don't mention where it is? How about the image, to show style, and - more important, that it is not yet finished. I think "was completed" is plain wrong, as it seems to suggest that it was. Or is that one of my language problems? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:19, 2 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Gerda Arendt: Thanks for dropping by to review. I added the city, but I don't see anything wrong with "before it was completed", as it is an appropriate description of the situation. A quick Google search shows that it's used in an error message for Microsoft Outlook, for what that's worth. Sounder Bruce 20:00, 2 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I can just believe you, and if it's a problem, a prep builder can fix. What about the image? Otherwise, it could be any kind of building, no? People nor familiar withSeattle will not recognize the name as streets. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:06, 2 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Gerda Arendt: I have added a QPQ. I don't think that the image of the building would produce well as a 100px thumbnail, but to help illustrate things I have added "high-rise" to the hook. Most Seattleites probably wouldn't be able to tell you about this building since it's new and not particularly distinct compared to the other stuff nearby.

thank you, understand --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:24, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
