I will be reviewing this article. I see you have many articles up for review at WP:GAN. Same with any of the reviews I do for you, just want to point out that I'm slow with content-related editing during the week, so please bear with me. I should have feedback for you tonight, however. — MusikAnimal ^talk 23:03, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

Concerns

• Same as with Greens Ledge Light, the NRHP compiler is not introduced beyond mentioning their last name. "McMahon writes, "A handsome..." should probably read like "Mary McMahon, who prepared the inventory form for the National Register of Historic Places, wrote "A handsome..." Maybe this is some widespread convention I'm unaware of, but as a reader I do wonder who the person is.
• Under Owners, "New London" should probably link to New London, Connecticut.
• Under Importance "Mahon writes that "[t]he interior". I'm assuming we meant McMahon, not Madon.

Once the above are addressed I will happily pass the nomination. — MusikAnimal ^talk 23:23, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

Y Just as with Greens Ledge Light, I have addressed the outlined concerns as the nominator has not responded to inquiries and it's been over 10 days since the review was put on hold. I hereby promote this article to Good Article class. I'll say it again... I hope to see nominator return to Wikipedia and improve more articles like they have here. Hats off to them for their hard work! — MusikAnimal ^talk 00:16, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
