On Tom Wolfe's Op-Ed

Sometimes, when writing a blog post, it is just better to write a few words and link directly to an article which pretty much says it all. Yesterday, author Tom Wolfe wrote a passionate, witty Op-Ed, tracing the rise of the
Landmarks Preservation Commission and its recent downfall.

The piece covers commissioner independence (one of CECPP's main concerns) and even mentions our November 13th Summit .

You can read the article in the Times here . As always, the article will soon disappear into the "pay only" section of the New York Times site, so if you want to read it for free, you can also find it on the Historic Districts Council Blog .
