Someone (the article's author perhaps) should say something more about the size of the fan--its more than 100 blocks--and the number of original and contributing buildings in the district (like 3,300), which I think makes it by far the largest Victorian neighborhood in the entire U.S. Maybe a couple more pictures?

I'm pretty sure the largest victorian neighborhood is actually Boston's South End76.24.209.199 (talk) 02:45, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

On that front, though the Fan is well preserved historic district, it is not Victorian in either Time or Predominant architecture, as a casual glance at the dates of construction and the definition of Victorian architecture shows.Charlesaf3 (talk) 05:39, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
