  • Keep Oh, I believe so.. The AIA Guide to the Architecture of New York City,which he co-wrote, is a highly influential book in the field of architecture, cited on numerous occasions. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. I'll be expanding this.--Sethacus 16:50, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. In addition to his architectural historian role, White was a key founder of the movement to save Penn Station from the wrecking ball[1]; although they failed with that objective, this is regarded as the germ of the modern movement for historic preservation and adaptive reuse of historic buildings. --Dhartung | Talk 20:16, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
Note, moved to Norval White, but should not affect AFD. --Dhartung | Talk 20:48, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. No actual reason has been stated for deletion by the nominator. Don't be so lazy. Burntsauce 21:59, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. A truly brilliant architect and architectural historian, the field will forever be in his debt. The pre-eminent authority on the architecture of New York City (read his text on the WTC Twin Towers....and realize that the incomprehensible human tragedy was about those victims and had little to do with the change in the skyline.)

  • Keep, agree with Burntsauce (lazy, lazy, Neutrality - for shame!!! :p ). Neil ム 12:35, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
