FAQ Help
[edit]A Good day to you,
I recently set up the Talk:List of tallest buildings in New York City/FAQ, to keep things in line with other featured content. I was going to add some additional information based on our talk page discussion, but I thought that since you were the original source of the information, I should give you the opportunity to add it to get proper credit, I was thinking of something along the lines of the following (close paraphrase of your answer):
- Q4: "Why do building heights sometimes vary depending on the reference?"
- A4: Height discrepancies sometimes occur depending on whether the source is measuring to the building's top floor, roof, bulkhead, the curtain wall promontory, or the tip of whatever antennas or mechanical masts are present at the top of the building. Using the City of New York's permit search can be helpful for newer building which are required to file public permits and zoning diagrams which can be found through the search portal. Take 50 West Street for example. The Department of Buildings lists it at 778 feet to the tip of the curtain wall; the sources that give slightly higher figures likely count the small portions of the mechanical bulkheads that extend above the upper edge of the curtain wall. Also note that permit heights are often listed as "absolute heights" or elevations, that is the official height of the building measured from sea level. Although the majority of Manhattan lies at or near sea level, certain buildings can appear significantly taller based on this measurement. For example, Central Park Tower's permits show an absolute height of 1,630 feet but a building height of 1,550 feet due to the fact that the area south of Central Park is roughly 80 feet above sea level.
It might also be better placed as Q3 or Q2, and of course feel free to improve upon what I've already written, thanks. 𝒬𝔔 20:07, 12 November 2019 (UTC)

It's not the most active place, but who knows if we keep running into people with a similar interest maybe we can get a good-size collaboration back together again even if no one individual is particularly active. The formal invite is below.

DYK for 432 Park Avenue
[edit]On 1 May 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article 432 Park Avenue, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the design of 432 Park Avenue (pictured) was inspired by a trash can? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/432 Park Avenue. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, 432 Park Avenue), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
