  • Link Murphy/Jahn in the lead
  • Infobox refers to the structural engineer as Rosenwasser/Grossman, but the text has Robert Rosenwasser Associates?
  • Link louvers
  • Floor space is variously given as 830,000 or 830,005
    • I've rounded both figures, since 830,000 is rounded to the nearest thousand. 830,005 is probably a metric-to-U.S. customary conversion, since the difference from the 830,000 figure is less than 1 square meter. Epicgenius (talk) 13:41, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • The lead uses the adjective Moorish to describe the dome's influence, but this doesn't seem to be elsewhere in the article
    • The influence of Moorish architecture was on City Center, not CitySpire. I removed it. Epicgenius (talk) 13:41, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Lead unequivocally says that it overran its height by 14 feet; but the article says it was either 11 or 14
  • "Koch ordered the incomplete dome dismantled that November" - But it was said to be completed in August earlier in the paragraph?
    • This was an error, so I have removed "incomplete". Epicgenius (talk) 13:41, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Infobox says that it was completed in 1987, but the body says and the building was completed by 1990 and the lead says 1989?
    • The building opened in 1990, rather than 1987 (which was the topping-out date). 1989 was the date when many residential and office tenants had purchased space in the building, but not all tenants had bought space by this time, so I removed that date from the lead.

  • Is NYCCigarBars.com RS?
  • Other sources look fine
  • Image licensing is okay
