• ... that the architecture of the State Insurance Building (pictured) in Liverpool, England, built in 1906, has been described as "flamboyant Gothic", and as "wiry, sinuous Gothic"?

Flamboyant is a common term used to refer to late-Gothic. --Elekhh (talk) 14:21, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

Sorry, I forgot to include the date of building (now added), which makes it Gothic Revival, rather then true Gothic (which was the point of the hook).--Peter I. Vardy (talk) 15:08, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

• • Looks good - length, date, sources, picture license etc. Hook is not all that exciting, but I don't think that matters. Good to go. Aymatth2 (talk) 01:33, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
