Just to toss in a vote on Confidence, yes, it IS "Richardsonian Romanesque." All the way. Carptrash 21:37, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)
or are there enough RR influence on the building in the gallery from Brooklyn to include it? I think it should go- or better, be replaced by a better RR example. Carptrash 00:10, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
I believe that this school is also an example of Richardsonian Romanesque, but it was constructed so long ago, not sure who the architect was.

I'm not expert on this, but I'm pretty sure Pioneer Square, Seattle, Washington has one of the largest collections of surviving Richardsonian Romanesque buildings. There are about 50 extant buildings in that neighborhood that the city categorizes as "Queen Anne - Richardsonian Romanesque"; most retain their original exteriors; some of those exteriors are beautifully preserved. Anyway, I leave it to someone more knowledgable than I on how this compares to other cities, but I would think it merits a mention in the article and inclusion of at least an image or two (many of which can be found in Commons:Category:Pioneer Square, Seattle, Washington and its subcategories). - Jmabel | Talk 06:03, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
If there is some concrete way I can help, let me know. That Dep't of Neighborhoods site I linked for the count of buildings has extensive information about each building, probably as much as you'll find in a book. Unfortunately, they seem to have a systematic error of leaving "South" off of the avenue names south of Yesler; also, they are more focused on pre-1950 history and precise condition today than anything else in the last half-century. Still, very useful. - Jmabel | Talk 18:44, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
There's 24 images on an article containing less than two whole paragraphs. Does anyone else think it's overkill? A Commons link is available if readers want to see a gallery. Unless someone reasonably objects, I'll be removing some of the images. APK is ready for the tourists to leave 16:05, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
(obvious solution) Instead of yours truly worrying about the gallery, I'll work on expanding the article over the next few weeks (I'm bad at concentrating on one article. Damn you, AADD). I'll incorporate certain images within the main text and have someone transfer the remaining photos to Commons. Sound groovy? APK is ready for the tourists to leave 20:03, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
from here:
iI is ( opinion) like insisting that, In 1492 Columbus sailed the the ocean blue, needs to be cited. This is Am Arch Hist 101 material. It does not need to be footnoted. Carptrash ( talk) 18:21, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
Wouldn't it be good to have the first example of this style? I thought I had put the image in there at one point, but saw the discussion about trimming pictures down. If a free image is needed, I can get one no problem. Paranormal Skeptic ( talk) 13:20, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
has several very fine examples of Richardson Romanesque, most notable the Queen Victoria Building and the much smaller Australian Mutual Providence Society Building. It might be interesting to consider these in the study that you mention. Amandajm ( talk) 00:30, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
Do we really want this much detail on one building here? I say "No." This is fine in the article about E.J. Lennox or Old City Hall (Toronto) but is not useful here. Einar aka Carptrash ( talk) 15:09, 9 March 2011 (UTC)
I would submit as a rather fine and coehernet example of "Ricahrdsonai Romanesque", Spooner Hall on the University fo AKnsas campus, in Lawrence, KS.

I reverted to BMK's version because it looks better, but I think Filetime's concept of spreading the images out is a good one. Can't you guys compromise? Viriditas ( talk) 22:21, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
