Overall: Recently expanded yesterday by 5x, no glaring neutrality, plagiarism, or grammatical problems, and interesting hooks. IMO the second hook is more interesting than two guys living in an abandon area. A really interesting article overall and an amazing job you did. I hope that one day an image of the town above water can be used :) Jon698 talk 14:41 6 June 2020 (UTC)
