Preservation push after Cleveland landmark demolition
In Cleveland the Cleveland Landmark Commission approved demolishing the 129 year old mansion of Gov. John Brough to make way for a parking lot. Preservationists urge stronger landmark protection and zoning changes to save historic buildings, noting limited remedies under current rules. The Cleveland Restoration Society seeks meetings with owners to share tax incentives and preservation benefits as city planners revise the zoning code.
