Talk:Midgaard (Marquette, Michigan)

WikiProject NRHP rating
For WikiProject NRHP, I'm giving this a rating of C; but it's a very high C, and with a few tweaks could be brought up to a B and even a decent GA candidate.

To get it to a B, I think we'd need a little more on John Lautner Jr.'s subsequent career. It doesn't have to recapitulate his biography, but "later an influential American architect" isn't quite enough. The building's description is generally good, but needs a little more: in particular, the dimensions, since a cabin could be anything from Thomas Lincoln's shack in the wilderness to John D. Astorbilt's 23-room hunting lodge; we also need to know a bit about the rooms on the second floor (presumably, there were bedrooms). There's also an ambiguous name: "John Lautner constructed a terrace on the north side" in 1939; but in that year, Lautner pere was still living, and Lautner fils was an adult architect, so it could have been either.
