We really need a photo. I'm not sure when I'll get a chance to get over there. Anyone? Tedernst | Talk 07:35, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
Someone needs to correct the height of the roof within the box; I would but I can't for some reason. Maybe only a wikipedia rep can. It's listed as 207 meters but it should really be 270.
Article is well referenced, covers it well, looks all very well, it's, well, a good article. :) Congratulations. Dooms Day349 00:26, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
This article is good, but here are a few issues: 1. How can this building's design evolve from Jin Mao when the latter was built and designed 10 years later? It has plenty of antecedents in the city. 2. The council on tall buildings did not change to include decorative spires. This issue was settled many decades earlier with the Chrysler Building height issue. What the Council did was add several additional categories, instead of having just the one measuring height. So the building's official height did not change. (If this were the case, so would have the Chrysler's, becoming higher, which it did not.) 3. I would be careful of the information found on Emporis. We all at the office got a good laugh when we found out that the John Hancock Building has no floor beams! Gary Joseph 03:29, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
Does anyone know how to contact the corporate office of ATT? Phone #'s, Fax #'s, email, address etc......... Thanks, —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.201.210.106 ( talk) 13:11, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
I will be doing the GA Reassessment on this article as part of the GA Sweeps project. H1nkles ( talk) 15:01, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
The article is good, the writing is tight and the subject is comprehensive. The article is up to date and the references are well-formatted. I'm concerned that the image in the lead has no licensing on it. Being that I am not very versed in image requirements I'm not confident enough to say that's a problem so I will raise the issue in the hopes that if it is an issue that someone will address it. There is one dead link in the references section: [7]. This should be repaired. Otherwise the article is fine. I'll keep it at GA. H1nkles ( talk) 15:18, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
The writing is not "tight" as the previous editor stated. In fact, the introduction, beyond which I have not looked, is a total mess because it puts all the information round the wrong way.
What are the problems?
How to write an intro about a building. Put the absolute essentials in the first paragraph, and then link like information, rather than mixing up sentences and paragraphs.
I think most of the above issues have been addressed. As the complex is now known as Franklin Center, I am proposing to retitle the page. Goldnpuppy ( talk) 23:28, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
