Size, etc.
editI strenuously doubt that a sculpted apple 7.5 metres tall (and, from the picture, about that big across) could house "four dining areas with a capacity of 500 people." Are these facilities in another building nearby? The article certainly doesn't say so. Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 22:29, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
