John Moutoussamy
JPC headquarters, Chicago, 1973
- ... that John Moutoussamy designed the only downtown Chicago high-rise building (pictured) by an African-American, with "colorful walls and psychedelic carpets"? Source: "One of Moutoussamy's most high-profile commissions was the headquarters for black publishing titan John H. Johnson’s growing media empire, which included Ebony and Jet magazines. Inside the stone-clad structure, colorful walls and psychedelic carpets exuded energy, celebrating black culture and commerce. Today, it remains the only downtown Chicago tower designed by an African American." ([1])

This article is new enough and long enough. The image is in the public domain, the hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright or plagiarism issues. A QPQ is needed, and can you do something about the ISSN errors mentioned in the reference section. What does "Ebony and Jet signage" mean? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:27, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
@Cwmhiraeth: I am contributing a QPQ to move this forward. @Edwardx:, please find an article to review when you can. --evrik (talk) 17:45, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
