hmmm … owning a house in a landmark district in Denver, and having a sense for
architecture, i have a very mixed opinion of enforced historic preservation; it
has been very messy in my neighborhood, and i live in fear, should i ever have
the money to do major work on my house, of the edicts of Landmark Preservation
Commission; meanwhile many of my neighbors find ways to skirt the regulations
(mostly by failing to pull permits) and cause obvious harm to the historic fabric
i think strict historic preservation should be used very selectively, but i
also wish people in general had more consciousness of architecture and urban design
