This article is clearly of GA quality.

  • I've done a few spot checks for verifiability
  • No neutrality concerns
  • Article is broad
  • I've checked copyright of images, earwig clean as well
  • Prose is good; ignore suggestions if you disagree.
    • from native and foreign artists in 1904 -> maybe change this to American and European, as the current description may be ambiguous in modern English. I associate the word native with native American, which I think isn't what the source says.
      •   Done I don't know where "native" came from. I've fixed that. Thanks for that suggestion. Epicgenius (talk) 17:29, 12 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
    • I suggest glossing frontage, and linking cantilever
      •   Done
    • Despite the AFAS building being meant for the shared use of all of the society's organizations, the Art Students League became the most closely associated with the building, having taken up the most space -> simplification possible?
      •   Done
    • The second-floor lecture room became a private gallery for the League at that time -> drop 'at that time'? I think it's clear from context
      •   Done
    • After the building was completed, it quickly became established as an architectural feature on 57th Street -> it quickly became an established architectural feature on 57th Street??
      •   Done
