Motivation edit
Digital map and archive that hosts historical photos and metadata from local GLAMs, with identifiers available for all of the building lots inside of a particular city. Could be used to match existing items, and also to create new Wikidata items for hundreds of noted buildings in New York City (those with historical photos), and elsewhere, that do not yet have a Wikidata item.Pharos (talk) 21:10, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
