Overall: The hook is supported by the sentence "North Philadelphia Station is a benchmark in the shift from the picturesque eclecticism of the nineteenth-century to the classical Beaux Arts tradition of the twentieth" in Ref No 1 (Historic American Buildings Survey. 1993). The photo is sufficiently licenced on Flickr. QPQ is done. Good to go. NearEMPTiness (talk) 08:21, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
