A handful of copy tweaks and alt text. Given that it's been a while, a fresh set of eyes could find more. 7-day hold to Epicgenius. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 03:34, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
Copy changes
[edit]History
[edit]- That June, two of the mortgage bondholders sued the Chanins and requested that the building be put into receivership, but a New York Supreme Court judge denied the request. Most of the earliest leases were for smaller apartments, but the larger units were being leased at a rate of one per day by September 1932. Maybe this belongs in the next paragraph?
- The New York Majestic Corporation took over the building in 1937. That November, the Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York loaned $2.5 million to the New York Majestic Corporation. Consider reflow to combine.
- Some tenants opposed the conversion and sued in the New York Supreme Court in an attempt to halt the conversion; maybe "halt it".
Notable people
[edit]- (later called the Genovese crime family) Add comma after this parenthetical.
Source spot checks
[edit]I randomly chose 9 refs for checks:
- 24
Chanin/Delamarre, NPS report
- 27
Emporis listing of 31 floors
- 63
"Extending their activities to Manhattan in 1924..."
- 66 Book source without preview.
- 82 Do not have access in ProQuest, though citation is correct for this article.
- 86 Same.
- 103 Same.
- 106
Permission for tenants to replace windows.
- 114 Do not have access in ProQuest, though headline would seemingly corroborate.
Other items
[edit]- Images are appropriately licensed but need alt text.
- Earwig only catches unavoidable formulations, the included quotes, and some proper nouns.
- References are archived.
- @Sammi Brie, thanks for the review. I have now fixed all of these issues. – Epicgenius (talk) 13:47, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
