Which article are you evaluating?
Chrysler Building (Provide a link to the article here.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_Building

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.) I wanted to chose a great example of architecture, and the chrysler building in NYC is one of the oldest skyscrapers. Many think of the Empire State Building, while it is a masterpiece in architecture, and because of the fact it was built in 13 months. However, I believe that the Chrysler building should get the same amount of credit, because of the time it was built and its similarity in style.

Evaluate the article
(Compose a detailed evaluation of the article here, considering each of the key aspects listed above. Consider the guiding questions, and check out the examples of what a useful Wikipedia article evaluation looks like.) From reading the article, it can be said that the article outlined many important points including information regarding the construction, history, and architectural style of the building. To dive deeper in the architecture, the article goes lengths in described the art-deco style for the exterior facade as well as the interior design of the building. In terms of construction, the main points are made in the initial introductory paragraph, but as a new element of the building was introduced, the construction process was a part of that. All in all, I think that the article touched on seemingly all topics a wikipedia article should include.
