I'm happy to see that the article has been developed quite a bit from how I started it. But I don't see why a few items I had included are now omitted. The following two were bluelinks, about items designed by Brinkman and Lenon, and now don't show:
Lake McDonald Lodge Coffee Shop, Lake McDonald Lodge Blvd., Lake McDonald, Glacier National Park, MT (Brinkman and Lenon), NRHP-listed[2]
I'll pause for a bit, for any comments, and expect to add them back and any other deleted NRHP-listed items that I had originally identified. --doncram 21:17, 24 March 2013 (UTC)Reply
I see that the latter one's NRHP nomination document gives credit also to one employee, Gewalt, of Brinkman and Lenon. But the firm deserves credit. From the NRHP document: "For the new Saint Mary Visitor Center the WODC provided some preliminary design concepts for siting, project administration, and on site project supervision for the buildings designed by the local Kalispell, Montana, firm of Brinkman and Lenon, Architects and Engineers. Within the firm, the unique visitor center buildings were envisioned and designed by Burt L. Gewalt under the direction of Architect Harry Schmautz." (See page page 5. I don't think an individual draftsman or designer or whomever in a firm, gets to usurp the firm which got the commission and supervised the person. --doncram 21:27, 24 March 2013 (UTC)Reply
