Content merger[edit]

I recommend taking some of the completed prose from Draft:Neptune Theatre (Seattle). Sounder Bruce 03:59, 21 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Done (mostly done): I think the majority of the content has been merged other than the architectural details, which you said you were going to keep working on. - Bri (talk) 00:40, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Conflicting dates for landmark status[edit]

Some sources say landmark status was conferred in 2012 (e.g. Historic Seattle; and the city gov't source used at List of Seattle landmarks), but the Seattle ordinance was 2014. - Bri (talk) 00:43, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The 2012 date refers to the nomination by the Landmarks Board, while the 2014 ordinance was passed by the City Council and granted landmark protections. I prefer to use the latter, since a landmark designation is practically useless without the protections that it entails. Sounder Bruce 00:49, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Soft opening[edit]

There was a soft opening in June 2011 with a Mark Lanegan show [1]. - Bri (talk) 01:06, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
