Article is new enough, long enough, no major problems spotted. ALT1 hook is short enough and corroborated by the cited source. To make it even better, I would suggest adding the phrase "robber baron" (in quotes) before the man's name in the hook, and also put it in the article; it's in Korom's book. File:Metropolitan_Building_Minneapolis.jpg could be used as an image. QPQ done. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 11:26, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
- As long as you don't have any concerns about the quality of the Metropolitan Building (Minneapolis) article I'm fine with those suggestions. I've tweaked the hook and added two quotations to the lede of Menage's article supporting that characterization. Nsteffel (talk) 17:41, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

Some doubts have been raised about the veracity of the hook, here, so I have returned it from prep until the issue can be resolved. Gatoclass (talk) 11:37, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
