Overall: More than 5 x expanded, mostly on 23 June. Image is licensed. All points check out, and all hooks are cited. I like ALT1 and ALT2 best, but we can leave that to whoever promotes this. Quite by chance, I used a photo of this theatre when I began an article on its architect, Eugene De Rosa, ten years ago. This would be ready to go, except that I do not see a QPQ link yet, Epicgenius. Please ping me when ready. Moonraker (talk) 21:01, 25 June 2022 (UTC)

@Moonraker: Thanks for the review. I have done a QPQ now. On a side note, it's a nice coincidence that you created the page about De Rosa. I've taken some pictures of the Broadway Theatre, but I'm not sure if they're any better than the one on De Rosa's page. Epicgenius (talk) 00:41, 27 June 2022 (UTC)

- QPQ now done, I believe this can be approved. Moonraker (talk) 07:51, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
