Greek revival? Neoclassical?
The article currently describes Hoffman Library as Greek revival. My understanding is that in American architecture, "Greek revival" is usually used to describe a style that was active from the early 19th century until around 1860. Based on McAlester's A Field Guide to American Houses (although Hoffman Library is admittedly not a house), it seems to me like perhaps "neoclassical" would be a better description since (in this book, at least, which I understand to be well regarded) that word refers to a style of architecture active roughly from the 1890s to the mid-twentieth century. Also, the library has Ionic columns, which (according to McAlester) are relatively rare in Greek revival houses but fairly common in neoclassical houses. I'm not sure if that applies to institutional buildings as well as houses, but it does seem to suggest that neoclassical would be a more accurate description than Greek revival here. Am I wrong? I'm pretty new to studying architecture, so any corrections are welcome. 2602:306:346E:A070:881C:3D44:D3FD:2419 (talk) 18:33, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

Aesthetics
The individual infoboxes for each bldg. look terrible and create a whole lot of white space. Since each separate yet identical map simply points to Annandale, they add nothing and lengthen the infoboxes unnecessarily. In some instances at least, the information could be worked into the text. All that space, makes it look as if someone forgot to come back and finish it. Manannan67 (talk) 21:24, 24 October 2019 (UTC)
