Art Deco apartment clarification

[edit]

Under the heading "Art Deco enthusiast", the text reads "Templeton was one of the millions of fair-goers who became enamored with the geometrical motifs of Art Deco at the Paris Exposition of 1925. He would return to France a few years later to commission fashionable furnishings and objects for his penthouse apartment in the Russian Hill neighborhood of San Francisco. The prominent apartment building at 945 Green Street, completed in 1928..." As written, it gives the impression that the apartment building at 945 Green St. is in the Art Deco style. It is not: it is Italianate in style; it was only the interior of Crocker's apartment that was Art Deco. I have added a few words to clarify this. Bricology (talk) 22:21, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
