- Comment: Note that for hook length, I have only counted the first of these links ("5") per WP:DYKSG rule C3. If these are not satisfactory, I can propose separate hooks for all of these.

: Epicgenius four qpqs conducted. All four articles are new enough and long enough, earwigs suggests no copyvio is present, cited to reliable sources. The hook facts are all cited in every article. I think ALT0 or ALT1 would be the best though you might want to rephrase to "only remaining "real strip of mansions"" to be clearer. ALT2 is a little wordy for me and ALT3 doesn't really seem as interesting. This is good to go Eddie891 Talk Work 19:25, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
- @Eddie891: Thanks for the review. I have reworded ALT0 or ALT1 accordingly, and I agree these are the best (I basically put the other ALTs as backup). Epicgenius (talk) 16:18, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
