GA Fail
The editor(s) involved in this article have clearly put in some serious work to make this article better, but it needs more work before it meets Good Article standards. It gives a decent overview of Nash's life, but it has some problems:
 * Organization. The article feels scattered, as though it's been put together piecemeal and without a strong organizational vision. The items in "Personal life" should be integrated into the article somehow.
 * Depth. "Early life" barely scratches the surface. Isn't there any more information available than the house he lived in? More depth could be added about the sewer-building company, and/or his personal life at the time.
 * Prose quality. The writing is awkward in many spots and – once more depth has been added – need a review from a copyeditor. (I recommend the fine folks at the WP:LoCE.) Some examples of difficult sentences:
 * However, it is his final residential address for the King-Nash House at 3234 West Washington Boulevard where he lived from 1925 until 1943 that became a Chicago Landmark. Very wordy and dense.
 * Nash did continue to run for Democratic party offices and served as a ward committeeman for the 14th Ward and later for the 28th Ward. Too many "and" clauses.
 * Nash and Kelly also began to integrate Blacks into Chicagos' political process. An obvious typo; there are many like it.

This article has a lot of potential, and I wish you luck with it. An overview summary is included below.
