The original donated property

Latest comment: 6 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

I'm pretty sure the original donated property that was sold to buy this one is where Kay Bullitt currently lives, and that she intends to will it to the city. If someone can verify that, it should probably be in the article. - Jmabel | Talk 18:25, 24 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

The Historylink article by Becker states that the Henrys donated property at the northwest corner of Harvard and Prospect to the city. 1125 Harvard Ave is on the northwest corner of Harvard and Prospect according to ordinary maps and county records. King County records and the Orbis West archive source in the draft indicate that 1125 Harvard is the Bullit house. Is this OK or do we still need a secondary source for the whole thing? ☆ Bri (talk) 19:47, 24 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Critical reviews are always good for expressive works, but I'm having trouble summarizing this neutrally. The writer said something about why the Capitol Hill Branch's architecture is good and the Beacon Hill branch is bad (I think). ☆ Bri (talk) 01:12, 25 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

The article's quip about Capitol Hill's branch isn't really worth including. The rest of it reads like a rant about race more than a critique of architecture, so I would be hesitant to even include it in the Beacon Hill article. Sounder Bruce 02:03, 25 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Glad I didn't leap to include this, as tempting as it was. ☆ Bri (talk) 03:17, 25 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
