Lead

• Fantastic work!

Architecture

• "Station 2 was constructed in the 1920s and considered significant as a rare surviving example of early 20th-century industrial architecture." --> No source  Not done As is standard partice, consecutive sentences that are sourced from the same reference have the citation only at the end of the last sentence in the sequence.
• "It was designed in an industrial Beaux-Arts style, with large arched windows and stringcourse intended to prevent it from becoming an eyesore given its proximity to affluent communities." --> Also no source  Not done See above.
• "It was constructed with Flemish bond brickwork and decorative limestone elements.[1][2] It was also constructed to minimize noise and ash pollution." --> "It was built with Flemish bond brickwork and decorative limestone elements, in addition to being constructed to minimize noise and ash pollution.[1][2]"  Not done The part about ash pollution is sourced to Ref. 3, not Refs. 1 and 2.
• Rest is great!

History

Construction and early history

• "The first facility on the site was Station 1, constructed in 1906 and expanded during World War I, which existed until at least 1939." --> No source  Not done See above.
• I think you should insert "any" in between "an impromptu baseball game while they waited for" and "power to return." (Just a suggestion; please consider it.)  Not done Don't think it's necessary.
• "At the time it was called "one of the most modern power plants in the country," with both mechanical and electrostatic precipitators for dust and ash collection, as well as valve silencers and noise barriers." --> Who(m) called it "one of the most modern power plants in the country"?  Done

Later history

• "As a result of the 1998 deal, LIPA had an option to purchase KeySpan's power plants outright before December 2005." --> No source  Not done See above.
• Rest is fantastic!

Demolition

• I think you should add "in the United States" in between "pointing to other redeveloped historic power plants" and "such as the Pratt Street Power Plant in Baltimore and the Homan Square Power House in Chicago.[20]"  Done
• "Station 3 was demolished in November 2013. Demolition of Station 2 was completed in 2015." --> "Station 3 was demolished in November 2013, while the demolition of Station 2 was completed in 2015."  Done
