  • "by U.S. Founding Father Alexander Hamilton" False title, although this is perhaps more of a personal preference.
    • I've lowercased this and changed it to "the U.S. founding father...". Epicgenius (talk) 22:49, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Link 143rd Street and 287 Convent Avenue.
    • I linked 143rd Street even though that is currently a redirect. However, 287 Convent Avenue doesn't exist, and, even if it did, it would just link back here. Convent Avenue also doesn't exist but I added a redlink. Epicgenius (talk) 22:49, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Federal style" No hyphen?
    • I've added a hyphen to the first use of this phrase "Federal-style house", as it's used as an adjective here. Epicgenius (talk) 22:49, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • "The second floor was used as bedrooms" Sound weird, floors can't be used as bedrooms.
    • I changed this to "The second-floor spaces were used as bedrooms." Epicgenius (talk) 22:49, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • A lot of the streets, roads, and avenues in the body need links.
    • I linked as many roads as I could. I do not think Hamilton Place is notable on its own, as it's a short street that runs only a few blocks, but all the other streets might be notable. Epicgenius (talk) 22:49, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • "born in 1755–1757" I'm not sure if the en-dash is appropriate here since this isn't a range.
  • "still rural, although gradually densifying" I don'y think densifying contrasts with rural.
  • "The opening of the Third Avenue Cable Railroad" When?
    • According to the source, by the late 1880s. Epicgenius (talk) 22:49, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Most of the references look reliable and are properly formatted.
  • Kosner, Edward (February 25, 2011). "Book Review: Harlem | Black Gotham | Harlem Is Nowhere". Wall Street Journal.
    • Is a book review, even one in the WSJ, a good source for factual claims?
      • I removed it; the next source also cites this fact perfectly. Thanks for the initial comments. Epicgenius (talk) 22:49, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Images are fine.
  • Will check the rest of the refs later. AryKun (talk) 21:18, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • Spot-checked a bunch of the references and found no issues, so will be passing. AryKun (talk) 20:19, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
