A fact from Burbank City Hall appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know? column on 2 May 2008.

[edit] Built dates, and NRHP document

I changed the text to read that it was built during 1942-1943, because the text said 1942 before and then the NRHP infobox information (from a NRIS download back in January 2007, provided via the Elkman NRHP infobox generator) said 1943.

Probably it would be better for this point, and to add a lot of other information to the article, to get the official NRHP inventory/nomination document for the site from the National Park Service. A National Register of Historic Places Inventory-Nomination document should be available upon request from the National Park Service for this site, but it appears not to be available on-line from the NPS Focus search site. It can be obtained by emailing a request to the National Register Reference Team, at nr_reference (at) NPS.gov. It's free, it's sent out by postal mail (so give your address). For most sites this is a 10-20 page document, written by NPS historians or consulting historians, it is reviewed and edited, it is a high quality source for a lot of architectural and other information. It is usually the more fundamental source that some other more lightweight sources/websites rely upon, often without disclosing that. Hope this helps. doncram (talk) 19:14, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
