ALT1:... that 647 Fifth Avenue(pictured) is the only remaining Vanderbilt family residence on a portion of New York City's Fifth Avenue once known as "Vanderbilt Row"? Source: Reed, Henry Hope, Jr. (August 12, 1962). "The Changing Face of Fifth Avenue: the Great Families Have Retreated From Their Fifth Avenue Strongholds, Leaving Some Midtown Masterpieces". New York Herald Tribune. p. F2.
Overall: There's no doubt that this article is long enough; main hook is sourced, ALT 1 is sourced, ALT 2 is sourced but scattered; Earwig generates a good result; QPQ done. Judging this from a non-American perspective, the main hook is too long and too idiomatic for readers to understand, ALT 1 is very confusing for those who never knew about Vanderbilt. ALT 2 on the other hand is very quirky and I've proposed an ALT blurb for this: ALT2A:... that the George W. Vanderbilt Residence(pictured) has never been occupied by Vanderbilt himself?
