What? I keep rereading not understanding. "Taken delivery"?

Still not sure what that means in the context of the OP.

It's an industry way of saying someone has bought and received something.

It could have been written as "the new east wing has arrived" or "look at the new east wing." I chose to use the phrasing that a reporter or mobile home seller would have used.

Is English your native language? I understand that this wording boarders on colloquialism rather than literal meaning but it isn't a rare phrasing.
