Shouldn't the "And" in the article name be "and" instead? - Dravecky (talk) 09:58, 13 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Yes: it was the NRHP style, but that can be a redirect. Acroterion _(talk) 11:36, 13 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

The External link to the Library of Congress states U.S. Capitol, Gateposts, Nineteenth Street & Constitution (moved from Capit, Washington, District of Columbia, DC: 11 photographs, 1 data page, 1 photo data page, at Historic American Building Survey yet the none of the four Bullfinch Gateposts are located on 19th St. NW. One is on 7th St and the other three on 15th St. Was a gatepost moved from 19th St? Is the address inaccurate? 96.26.79.253 (talk) 02:10, 22 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
