A fact from Clarence House, Brighton appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 5 January 2023 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that when the former Clarence Hotel in Brighton began to collapse in 1990, the resulting closure of North Street diverted 120 buses per hour in each direction for a week?

... that when the former Clarence Hotel(pictured) in Brighton began to collapse in 1990, the resulting closure of North Street diverted 120 buses per hour in each direction for a week? Source: Principally Roger French (2010), Pride and Joy: My Amazing 25-year Journey with Brighton & Hove Buses: paragraph on p132 (full quotation on request). That does not explicitly name the building (although the accompanying photograph in the book makes it clear), but Carder (1990) Section 112 does confirm it was Clarence House.
Overall:
Article was moved to mainspace today. Article coverage is neutral with no copyright violations according to Earwig. Well-sourced throughout with inline citations. Hook is interesting, stated in the prose, and backed by a reliable source. QPQ requirement fulfilled. Image usage is approved. This one is good to go!
