This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.

1. Is it well written?

   A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:

   In the Years of setbacks section, it would be best to add "Robert Kennedy" in this sentence ---> "President Kennedy’s brother, by then a New York Senator had been serving as president of the John F. Kennedy Library Corporation, until he was shot and killed in 1968", replace "brother" with "Robert Kennedy". I mean, I know who the article is talking about, but how 'bout the reader.

   B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:

   In the Initial process section, the links to "Paul Thiry" and "Benjamin Thompson" need to be linked correctly.

2. Is it verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check?

   A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:

   Reference 1 is missing Publisher info. References 9 and 12 need to be properly fixed.
