I am in the process of writing a research paper on Henry Hobson Richardson, and require more in-depth information. If anyone can offer some insight, I would be most grateful.

A picture of Toronto's old City Hall might also be useful for the pictures section, if we're to include mention of Richardson's influence -- it's an elegant Richardson-style building, and far more photogenic than the Ontario Parliament... -- Chris LaRoche 3:48, 16 Dec 2006 (UTC)
I found some portraits of the man:
The second is okay for non-profit use and attribution. Not sure about the second one, if it's PD or not. ~~Shiri — Talk~~ 06:08, Mar 27, 2005 (UTC)
I removed odd colloquialism "H. Richardson was not the father of modernism. But he was the grandfather of modernism". ' Father -- grandfather. Were there ever any mothers, grandmothers?? Brosi 14:21, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
Great start to an article, neads lead expanding per WP:LEAD, in-line citations, and the gallery pruning substantially. -- Antischmitz 16:59, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Henry Hobson Richardson's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I just moved this - " * 1880 Witherbee Mansion - Port Henry, NY "- from the list of the Great Man's commissions to talk about. It is not mentioned in either VanRensselaer or Ochsner, the two classic Richardson references, and doing a quick Google search only brought up this www.alisonvcraigrealty.com/res6.htm site. Which says nothing about Richardson. Any ideas/ other than to keep it off? Carptrash ( talk) 23:37, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
I suggest removing two images that show buildings not by H.H. Richardson: 1) the Wellesley B&A Station, a work by Richardson's successors Shepley, Rutan and Coolidge dating from 1888; 2) the Lucius Tuckerman mansion, Washington DC. Since this is an article about H.H. Richardson, it would seem best if only Richardson's own buildings are illustrated here. Perhaps these non-Richardson images could be moved to the Romanesque Revival page. Sullivanesque ( talk) 21:25, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
I removed (from the List of Works) the Wellesley B&A Station and the Alston B&A Station, both of which were by Richardson's successors, Shepley, Rutan & Coolidge. I also removed the Lucius Tuckerman Mansion in Washington DC since it is not a Richardson building. Chesterct ( talk) 02:44, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
I removed the Unity Church, Springfield MA, from the list since it is not "extant." The list could be changed to a complete list of works and demolished buildings could be added back in. Chesterct ( talk) 02:44, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
Removed the Marshall building in Chicago from extant works, torn down in 1930s. — Preceding unsigned comment added by J777e ( talk • contribs) 16:10, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
The text on the Howard aka Taylor Library Building in New Orleans read "The office of Shepley, Rutan and Coolidge used a Richardson design which had been submitted and rejected some years earlier. This leads some, particularly those in New Orleans, to argue that this library is an original Richardson design." This wording seemed rather confusing to me. It seems to say that 1) the design was by Richardson 2) some people argue the design is by Richardson, but this is debatable (for some reasons not specified). I have attempted to clarify and expand the description. Infrogmation ( talk) 18:56, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
Unless someone objects, I intend to shift this article to list-defined references sometime soon to simplify future changes as it grows. More info can be found at the WP:LDR shortcut.-- Frankie Rae ( talk) 20:19, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
We all know that Richardson designed many of the Boston and Albany Railroad stations, but since B&A became a subsidiary of the New York Central Railroad, and the NYC Harlem Line connected to the B&A at Chatham Union Station, is it possible he may have also designed some stations along the Harlem Line? Or did he at least influence the design of the stations? Check this link out( http://world.nycsubway.org/perl/show?61715), as well as this description;
One of three Henry Hudon(sic)Richardson-designed station buildings at consecutive stations from Chappaqua to Bedford Hills, identical except for building materials used.
Aside from the misspelling of his middle name, is there any credibility to this statement? ---- DanTD ( talk) 03:34, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
Can anyone find any reputable record showing that this train station was built by Richardson? It's not in Ochsner's guide to his complete works. Someone posted this to the HH Richardson page and the article says that Richardson was the architect. The National Register of Historic Places lists the building as having an unknown architect. Thanks!
