... that Robert Spencer Finkbine spent 13 years as the superintendent of construction of the Iowa State Capitol? Source: Shank, Wesley I. (1999). Iowa's Historic Architects. University of Iowa Press.

Cited: - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith
Interesting:
QPQ: Done.
Overall: Straight to the point and neutral. It would help if you could incorporate some online sources, in addition to the offline ones, as copies of Iowa's Historic Architects is hard to come by. Would it be possible to advance alternatives hooks? I suggest: "Robert Spencer Finkbine was the superintendent of construction at the Iowa State Capitol for 13 consecutive years." el.ziade (talkallam) 15:03, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
