... that the Team Disney Orlando building in Florida features a 120 foot (37 m) sundial, the world's largest at the time of its construction?
Source: “The huge, open drum in the middle of the building turns out to be not just an ornamental tower but a vast sundial—Disney officials claim it is the world’s largest—that functions as both a meditative central court and a way of observing the passage of time”

ALT1: ... that the Team Disney Orlando building in Florida features a 120 foot (37 m) sundial, the largest in North America? Source: "This experience with the largest sundial in North and South America led Dr. McCluney to a new interest in sundial design and a search for other sundial designers and makers. "

Dmartin969: I will do a full review later. However, I noticed that neither of these facts (that the sundial was allegedly the world's largest, and that the sundial is the largest in North America) is in the article. In addition, the sources say something slightly different for both of these: for the original hook, it's that Disney claims that the sundial is the world's largest, and for ALT1, it's that the sundial is the largest in the Americas (not just North America).

In addition to the nominator's lack of activity (they have not been very active lately and have not edited since the 7th), the above comment was not responded to despite a ping and a talk page message. Without prejudice against the nomination continuing if they return and respond, this is now marked for closure as stale.
