"stop on the Underground Railroad" this needs a little context.
I added some context for what the underground railroad is in the background section, and added a source at the end of the paragraph including "stop on the Underground Railroad". If that's not what you meant, could you say more?
"leading community" the local community?
Addressed this.
"is in development as of July 2021." September now.
Actually should've said June 2021, since that's when the last source was published that talks about it. It is indeed still in development now, but that's my OR.
"with southern states " link?  Isn't this normally capitalised, at least "Southern states"?
Had to check this. Looks like Wikipedia is pretty inconsistent on the matter, but the best advice I could find recommended capitalizing when it's a group of states rather than state in a particular direction. Done.
"the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850" of 1850 goes in the link.
Done.
"still largely done in secret" conducted rather than "done".
Done. Conducted.
" c. 1847-50" en-dash and full year, i.e. 1847–1850 unless it's just the first part which is circa, in which case it's c. 1847 – 1850.
Done.
First para of "227 Duffield Street" is unref.
Done.
"1786 – 1862" no spaces.  There are more of these.
Done.
" Park.[3][1][10] " order.
Done.
"Railroad.[8][11][3] The" ditto.
Done.
"Professional Archaeologists of New York City (PANYC)" you never use the abbreviation so why bother?
Done.
"publicization" is this really "publication"?
Done.
"use eminent domain to seize" link eminent domain here.
Done.
"name: Abolitionist Place.[16][6]" order, and replace the colon with "of" to reduce the "DRAMA".
Sounds fun. I've just learned that AWB disabled auto-ordering refs (one of the only reasons I fire it up) because of "drama"... Done.
"sold 50% of the property" half?
I suppose 50% feels more precise, but I can't really articulate why. Done.
"mixed-use building in its place.[17][18][14]" order, and link mixed use?
Done.
"president Eric Adams" doesn't need disambiguation.
Done.
"designation.[24][3]" order.
Done.
"House.[2][25][5] The" order.
Done.
"a 15,000 square-foot park" convert.
Done.
" 1.15 acre space" convert.
Done.
Suggest you use the {{reflist}} template for consistency across Wikipedia.
No strong opinion here. Visual Editor throws the old fashioned one in there. Done.
That's all I have on a quick pass. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 18:48, 1 September 2021 (UTC)

@The Rambling Man: Thanks for the review! I think I've addressed nearly everything here. A couple follow-up notes (mainly towards the top). — Rhododendrites talk \\ 05:30, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
Can I suggest "Southern states"? It makes sense to capitalize 'Southern' as it's referring to a specific geographical entity and not the general direction. The whole phrase together is not commonly a proper noun. Firefangledfeathers (talk) 13:10, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
Fine by me. Done. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 13:46, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
