Interesting building, on excellent sources, no copyvio obvious. I miss an image, the one to the bottom, which I'd probably use as lead image in the article, - more characteristic than the present one. Perhaps a hook about that feature. Because the original is sad, and ALT1 not too exciting. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:46, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt: Thanks for the review. I've added an image. I'm not sure what type of hook I should write about the bridges between the wings of 65 Broadway. It's not that interesting compared to other NYC architecture like this, this, and this. epicgenius (talk) 16:42, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
