General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
QPQ: Done.
Overall: I like ALT1, the second hook which talks about taking the trading off the street. The article text relevant to this talks about taking the trading indoors out of the weather, cited to the Landmarks Preservation Commission PDF. Binksternet (talk) 03:05, 25 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

  • "#2515" not hash for number.
  • You seem to be repeating the "New York Curb Exchange" methodology twice in the lead.
    • Well, this was previously known as the New York Curb Exchange Building, because that was the former name of the American Stock Exchange. epicgenius (talk) 22:06, 5 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "enlarged in 1929–1931" as before, maybe "between 1929 and 1931"?
    • Done.
  • "The New York Curb Exchange became the American Stock Exchange, which moved " mildly confused. Which "which" do you mean?
    • Clarified - it was American Stock Exchange that moved. epicgenius (talk) 22:06, 5 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "NRHP reference #" etc in the infobox, I think I brought this up before, it should be changed to comply with MOS.
  • "five 3-story-tall " three.
    • Done.
  • "The words "New York Curb Market" " vs "letters american stock exchange" format very different.
    • Fixed.
  • "(16,882.8 m2)". pretty sure the .8 isn't necessary!
  • Ditto for other such conversions.
  • "the New York Stock Exchange was" you already abbreviated it.
    • Fixed.
  • "$1.6 million." inflate?
    • Done.
  • " was about halfway done" doesn't feel encyclopedic in tone.
    • Fixed.
  • "June 2012.[69][3] T" order.
    • Fixed.
  • Ref 70, spaced hyphen, should be en-dash.

That's all I have on a quick pass. On hold, but pretty much way beyond GA standards already. Good stuff. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 21:36, 5 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

All good, I'll pass. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 09:19, 6 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
