Encyclopedic content?[edit]

The article states, "Lana Berkowitz of the Houston Chronicle stated that there are legends of the Ideson Building being haunted by the ghost of Jacob Frank Cramer, a library caretaker, and Petey, his dog.[2]" Does this really belong in a Wikipedia article?

Depends on how much more the article can be developed. If there are multiple sources talking about the "legends" of haunting (they must never be presented as real), maybe. If this is the only one, maybe it's not important eneough WhisperToMe (talk) 17:56, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Say what?[edit]

"In 1976 the Jesse H. Jones Building (as it was named in 1989) opened…"

Sorry, but how can a building open in 1976 with a name it didn't have till 1989? Okay, obviously that's not what it meant—but as I don't know what it should say, I haven't changed it. – AndyFielding (talk) 10:15, 10 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Also, as the mobile version of WP doesn't let us edit our entries here, I'd like to point out that those words should've been italic, not bold. ;?) – AndyFielding (talk) 10:17, 10 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
