My DYK experience is long stale, just commenting that this expansion is amazing to see in an article so old. I'm even more curious now about a building I've been in recently. Well done. StarMississippi 21:53, 21 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
Star Mississippi, thanks, I really appreciate it. I feel similarly to you as well. Even though I've commuted past the building daily for the better part of a decade, I never took the time to stop and look at it before. Epicgenius (talk) 22:31, 21 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
Interesting building, great GA on fine sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. I hope we'll get the good licensed image. I'd prefer the original hook, but all are good. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:01, 26 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
Add a short description and then WP:ALT text to every image. "an offshoot of Swedish photography museum" → "an offshoot of the Swedish photography museum"
