QPQ: Done.

Overall: Overall, looks good. QPQ done, Earwig turns up nothing except long names, and article is very developed by DYK standards, with plenty of reliable sources. Pic is not the most visually interesting, but freely licensed and good enough. I like ALT0 the best, with ALT2 a distant second. If ALT2 is used, I'd suggest adding "in 1895", and if ALT1 is used, I'd suggest wikilinking over "steel cage-frame structure". {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 23:12, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
