Good Morning. My name is Dalton Freitas and I am the executive assistant at Thompson Central Park New York. Please note that our main entrance IS on 56th street and not on 57th. The photo of the Le Meridian is a photo of the hotel next door, and our property is actually barely visible. Thank you.

@epicgenius - Yes, the former Viceroy Hotel rebranded as a Le Meridian in 2019. That is the hotel next door to us on 57th st. The main body of our property is on 56th street. The image which includes the Le Meridian is primarily of that property. In that photo, our property is only a sliver in the back left side of the photo. Our main entrance has always been on 56th street. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dkfreitas (talk • contribs) 14:20, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

As you may recall, on Oct 11, 2019 you added big chunks of content to the Alphabet City article with the comment "from the East Village article." Much of the edit is probably good, but I've been running into some headscratchers.
The current one is this: "for a short period, the portion of the Lower East Side that is now Alphabet City was one of the wealthiest residential neighborhoods in the city." As the associated citation suggests, this was true for the East Village (parts 2nd Ave and adjoining St. Mark's), but not Alphabet City. The paragraph goes on to support the statement by mentioning a mix of developments outside the neighborhood and speculation around Tompkins Square that resulted in later, lower-priced housing.
There's a lot to go through and I'm no expert, so I wondered if you had any suggestions on editors, yourself included, who could put some focused effort into the article, particularly the historical sections? Unendin (talk) 01:16, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

Thank you today for Surrogate's Courthouse, "about a historic building in Manhattan, New York City, erected in the 1890s and 1900s. The courthouse building, originally the Hall of Records, contains dozens of detailed facade sculptures and a vault-like lobby. Like the neighboring Tweed Courthouse (an FA), the Surrogate's Courthouse was mired in controversy through its construction, especially after the original architect died. The term "horganizing and slatterifying" was used to criticize the new architects. Unlike its neighbor, the Surrogate's Courthouse didn't receive the same level of opposition upon its completion, and it's mostly been used as a surrogate's court for New York state, as well as a hall of records. It is a National Historic Landmark and a New York City landmark, and it continues to be used as a courthouse."! - It's nice to know from an article blurb who wrote it ;) - Music for you! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:20, 18 December 2021 (UTC)

This is to let you know that the New York Stock Exchange Building article has been scheduled as today's featured article for January 24, 2022. Please check the article needs no amendments. If you're interested in editing the main page text, you're welcome to do so at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/January 24, 2022, but note that a coordinator will trim the lead to around 1000 characters anyway, so you aren't obliged to do so.
For Featured Articles promoted recently, there will be an existing blurb linked from the FAC talk page, which is likely to be transferred to the TFA page by a coordinator at some point.
