Article is new, long enough, and without major issues. Hook is interesting, verified, and within length. QPQ supplied. Two minor issues: Don't we have an approximate date for the demolition of the building? The sentence, "The station building is no longer extant," dropped between two past tense events, reads rather awkwardly, as it breaks the chronological flow. Also, the Church website seems to imply that the meetings at the station had gone on for some time before the Sunday School was established in 1881, and the Boston Globe is a bit vague on what the date represents. The hook just says 1880s, so it's fine. Good to go. --Paul_012 (talk) 20:05, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for the comments. I have a few more sources to add, one of which clarifies the date of the station building closure (and presumably demolition) as 1942. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 20:29, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
