Preservation for you, demolition for me

New Orleans has more than an adequate supply of preservation experts both professional and amateur. So there are always any number of opinions available as to whether this or that building is historically significant enough to be spared a razing.

But ultimately the only factor that has any bearing on what action is taken is whether or not the property owner has the financial and political wherewithal to impose his or her will.
