Coney Island’s Shore Theater Is Named a Landmark

The New York Times reports the landmark designation of the Shore Theater on Surf and Stillwell Avenue.

It is proof that you don't need the owner's approval to get a building designated. While it is usually easier, the Landmarks Preservation Commission knows that community members may understand a structure's significance apart from land value, which is usually the landowner's primary concern, moreso than the building itself.
