Telling you here rather than flagging it - there's something wrong with this sentence: "While the earliest house in the district, the Smith-Collins House, dated to 1854 with an 1875 renovation, it has since been demolished, spurring historic preservation efforts throughout Yonkers". Either something got omitted, or there's a hiccup in the structure. Awien (talk) 22:16, 20 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
The sentence did not get completely edited. When I began working on the article, I was going by the NRHP nom, written while the house was still extant. The quoted sentence was the result of changing it hastily when I realized that it was gone.
