5x expanded by Epicgenius (talk). Self-nominated at 14:59, 30 May 2018 (UTC).
Article is over 10k characters long and was a 5x expansion at the time of the nomination. No apparent problems in the article, as every paragraph is sourced and all seems to be within policy. All three proposed hooks are in the article, neutral, and sourced. I have no personal preference. QPQ is done. Really the only problem I have with this at all is Penn South's inclusion in the "neighborhood" navbox, as Penn South is a complex and not a "neighborhood". The lead even says it's in Chelsea. I think it should be taken out of that navbox, though I'm debating whether or not to just do it myself. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:28, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
