Thank you for nominating this article. No disamb. or invalid external links.

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    A (prose):
    "a high-rise office building" - not by the standard in most cities. Please delete "high-rise".
    "Demolition faced almost all structures in Southwest Washington and was to have begun in 1950, "->"Original plans called for the demolition of almost all structures in Southwest Washington beginning in 1950,"
    "it in 2009 and 2010, but chose not to"->"it in 2009 and 2010, but chose not to do so."
    You state the metro entrance for the first time in the Rennovation section. Describe it in the "Original structure" section. How did construction of Metro impact the building?
    B. MoS compliance for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, and lists:
    Expand lead to include current tennants.
  2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    A. References to sources:
    Washington Post says 1.9 million sq ft but article says 1.4 million. Which is it?
    B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:
    C. No original research:
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. Major aspects:
    Did Stone receive any awards or recognition for his design?
    Are there any fitness centers, auditoria or other amenities?
    Consider describing relationship and access to I-395.
    Perhaps include names of the two art works.
    Perhaps state DOT's new location after it vacated the building.
    Prior to the rennovation, there was not retail space on the ground floor other than some food vendors. How is the ground floor being leased now? One of the professed advantages to having leased office buildings instead of federally owned buildings was that the retail space on the ground floor would create more of a street-scape and would attract pedestrian shoppers. Do you have any press coverage of the street-scape at present?
    B. Focused:
  4. Is it neutral?
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. Is it stable?
    No edit wars, etc:
    No edit wars.
  6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
    A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
    B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:
    This article represents significant work by its author, but is far from GA standards. Putting review on hold for you to address concerns. Racepacket (talk) 14:55, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
