i understand your perspective, and suspected you had an interest in the non-preservation side-effects; would you feel as strongly if you didn't have rent control?
here, landmarking of several hundred mostly single-family homes has has done nothing to stop (and i would argue has partly caused) gentrification, sharply rising rents, and a trend toward undesirable development immediately adjacent to the landmark district; it will also make it harder for this neighborhood to reach efficient urban density
