No worries. There is definitely a positive and a negative to historic registries. I used to work for a guy who worked really hard to get complete dumps put on the historic register. So, great. Thanks for that. Now they can't get torn down and turned into parking lots (which was what was needed in that particular community and would have vastly improved the neighborhood). It probably depends on if it's actual NHR or some sort of local status thing that they can get around. A shiny new sorority house built in a traditional style has to be preferable to a 100 year old single family dump in the middle of campus.
