Observations

edit
  • Infobox is not 72nd Street?
    • Theoretically it should be "72nd Street" (superscripts are never used in ordinals per MOS:ORDINAL), but as I explained in Talk:86th Street station (IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line)/GA2, there was a consensus to drop the ordinal from infoboxes, which I disagreed with.

  • The Interborough Rapid Transit Company (IRT) - a good, explanatory link. (I don't live in the US)
  • Reference 18 has a good explanation of the H system.
  • In addition to $1.5 million (equivalent to $0 million in 2019) How much?
    •   Fixed I didn't realize the rounding was off.
  • Reference 19 is a most interesting narrative.
  • The Broadway/West Side route became known as the 1, the West Farms route as the 2, and the Lenox Avenue route as the 3.[28] --> is this what was on the rollblinds of the R12's, etc? If so, mention.
  • During the early 1950s, it was considered to convert the 59th Street–Columbus Circle station --> During the early 1950's, consideration was given to converting the 59th Street ... ...
  • could barely fit five- or six-car --> could barely fit five-or-six-car
    •   Fixed I'm not sure whether the specifically suggested wording works, so I rephrased it differently. The station could fit trains of up to five cars or six cars, but "five-or-six" sounds strange. Epicgenius (talk) 17:53, 28 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • remove duplication here: (equivalent to $910.3 million in 2019) (equivalent to $910.3 million in 2019) .
  • The timing of this appears about face? A 1999 resolution adopts a 1996 design? --> In February 1999, the MTA Board adopted a resolution allowing the MTA to use a request for proposals process for the project.[43] The project's design was completed in 1996 by Dattner Architects and Gruzen Samton

  • Article is basically OK, if we can fix the above, the next stop is GA. --Whiteguru (talk) 10:03, 28 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
