Comment: I think this is a borderline case, for a few reasons. First, he designed a couple of buildings on which we have articles. However, it's only two, and the coverage provided is little more than "...designed by Gosling" or similar. This puts him into the "MILL" category of architects - just someone doing their job. If there were a few more references (with a bit more info), especially ones that were specifically about him, I think this could easily pass. Primefac (talk) 15:12, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
- Comment: This might be better off as a redirect to Nevada State Capitol, where sourcing should be added that notes Gosling as its designer. CaptainEek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 20:45, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
- He designed at least two important extant buildings from the early 1870s and 1880s, one of them the Nevada state capitol and the other home in San Francisco listed on the National Register of Historic Places. We also of documentation of other work he did. Notable. FloridaArmy (talk) 15:33, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
Joseph Gosling was an architect in San Francisco. He is credited with designing the Nevada State Capitol.[1] He also designed the Frank G. Edwards House in San Francisco. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[2] He had an office at 9 Post Street in San Francisco.[3] He also designed Turk Street School.[4]
Before moving to San Francisco he worked as a carpenter in Virginia City, Nevada.[5]
His plan for Nevada's capitol was a two-story building in the shape of a Grecian cross.[6]
He submitted architectural plans for the Napa State Insane Asylum (Napa State Hospital) in 1870.[7] He and Eusebius Joseph Molera (November 14, 1846 - January 14, 1932)[8][9] were elected to become members of the San Francisco chapter of the American Institute of Architects in 1882.[10]
