Law firm promotional content
The article Adam Leitman Bailey, was for a period the subject of heavy promotional editing by employees or associates of the subject. A score or so socks were blocked and the article restored to a reasonably neutral form. See Talk:Adam Leitman Bailey as well as Sockpuppet investigations/Internalb/Archive. Recently an IP geolocating to NYC (like the prior editors) and a newly-formed single purpose account have been restoring some of the material that had been deleted, here and at the lawyer article. In light of the history here, and the relentless efforts of prior socks, that's why I am reverting these restorations on sight. JohnInDC (talk) 21:47, 5 March 2015 (UTC)

Conflicting numbers: height, floor, address
What is going on here? This should be simple: Just the facts.

The first paragraph states: "building is 360 ft (110 m) with 32 floors."

History section begins with original design: "40-story building that stood 470 feet (140 m) tall" and goes on to say, "the developer decided to scale up the building slightly [what's with the commentary?] to 44 stories for 117 residential units and 504 ft (154 m) tall" but says nothing about revised plans, much less approvals. Was this a unilateral change?

But wait, the section ends with, "The finished building, the Halcyon Building, has 32 floors and its street address is 305 East 51st Street."

32 floors, then 40 stories, then 44 stories, but ends with a 32 floor building. So it ended where is began?

Oh wait, the confusion doesn't end there.

What the address?

 * 303?
 * 305?
 * or 303-305?

Emporis.com: 32 floors
Emporis says:
 * Main Address	303-305 East 51st Street
 * Floors (above ground)	32
 * Height (architectural)	360.01 ft

skyscraperpage.com: 32 floors
Skyscraper says:
 * 303 East 51st Street
 * Floor Count	32
 * Roof		320 ft

phorio.com: 44 floors
Phorio.com says:
 * 305 East 51st Street
 * 44 floors
 * 153.62 m (504.01 ft)

I suspect this confusion may stem from the confusion in this article, but that's just a guess.
