Note that there are actually a few such residences left, and I (Epicgenius) actually proposed two similar hooks 6 months ago (130 West 57th Street, which ran with a similar fact, and Gainsborough Studios (Manhattan), which used a different fact). So this may be used as an alternate if none of the other hooks work.

This impressive article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline and any of the hooks could be used, the article is neutral, and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:17, 25 May 2021 (UTC)
