:I didn't notice your comment until now, and I hope I've addressed some of the problems in the last few hours. At least it's a start. I really must stop now, sorry. [[User:Arminden|Arminden]] ([[User talk:Arminden|talk]]) 03:27, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
::Another point: what the style was called by contemporaries is probably little more than a curiosity on Wiki, which is mainly a general-interest resource; what the mainstream terminology is ''now'' is, I guess, the most relevant. Anyhow, we cannot have articles w/o clear definitions of the topic at hand, and here things are still far from well.

The ziggurat facade, with its vertical orientation, looks more Art Deco than Moderne to me. No rounded corners either. I looked it up and others (see [https://www.flickr.com/photos/miamiboy/51213500001 here]) also have it under Art Deco with of International Style influence, while its architect, [[L. Murray Dixon]], is known for his Art Deco work.
Unless someone can convince me of the opposite, it's out. [[User:Arminden|Arminden]] ([[User talk:Arminden|talk]]) 10:28, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
