Cistern of Mocius
edit- ... that the Byzantine Cistern of Mocius, once the largest open air cistern in Constantinople, has been turned into the educational park of the Fatih district in Istanbul?

The article is long enough (over 3000 characters), recent enough, definitely neutral, decently sourced, with plenty of inline citations. Can't find the sources used online, which means I can't check for close paraphrasing issues, but I'm going to assume good faith here, especially that a quick google search doesn't show any copy-paste issues. The hook is nice, short enough and supported by a source in the main body (two actually). The article could use a picture of the cistern itself, but the map that is there is free (and great BTW. And a featured image at that!). Overall - the DYK nomination is good to go. //Halibutt 20:54, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
