Fontana Boathouse

... that Frank Lloyd Wright's 1905 plan for a Wisconsin Badgers Crew boathouse was shelved and later built in 2007 for the West Side Rowing Club (pictured) in Buffalo, New York? Source: Wright again: Many Frank Lloyd Wright designs for Madison were never built. Now, some are getting a second chance.

Overall, seems good to go. Article is new enough, long enough, and free from copyright issues, as well as neutral. The hook is interesting and cited, and the image is free and clear. QPQ seems to be unnecessary in this case, as this is one of your first DYK nominations. Overall, good to go! -JJonahJackalope (talk) 14:21, 18 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
