Edgecliff (Winnetka, Illinois)

 * ... that Edgecliff was the building with the highest residential property tax in Cook County in 2014 and 2015?
 * Comment: I realize that this is not yet 1500 characters. There is a book coming from the Chicago Public Library. I will pick up "North Shore Chicago: Houses of the Lakefront Suburbs, 1890-1940" on the 18th.

Questions: Is the home still standing? Is it possible to get a photograph of the house? Flibirigit (talk) 23:14, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
 * I don't get up to that neighborhood in daylight very often. I'd place a request at WP:CHICAGO and Talk:Winnetka, Illinois. Maybe even Talk:North Shore (Chicago).-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 12:59, 24 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen in online sources. Hook refs verified and cited inline. However, I would suggest adding a little description to the hook:
 * ALT1: ... that Edgecliff, a landmarked estate completed in 1930, had the highest residential property tax in Cook County in 2014 and 2015?
 * ALT2: ... that Edgecliff, a landmarked house in the style of the 17th- and 18th-century French manor houses of Normandy and the Loire Valley, had the highest residential property tax in Cook County in 2014 and 2015? Yoninah (talk) 11:08, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
 * QPQ is dragging along, but TonyTheTiger has done his reviews for it. Yoninah (talk) 00:32, 26 November 2018 (UTC)

- Length, Date, Cite (for ALT1, offline ref AGF for ALT2), QPQ, and Earwigs check. ALT1 and ALT2 approved. Mifter (talk) 23:48, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
