But other changes continue and it is still not clear when, if ever, the commission will designate the district.

In 2003, the commission designated the cathedral itself a landmark.

Nevertheless, the commission designated the structure a landmark in 1977.

The commission designated the old police station and firehouse as well.

More than 20 companies are competing to develop a system that the commission will designate as the industry standard.

It is an ambitious request, unlike anything the commission has designated.

The commission designated both the building and the restaurant as landmarks in October 1989.

Since 1973, the commission has designated 104 interiors as landmarks.

A day later the buildings were scheduled for a hearing, and within a month the commission had designated them as landmarks.

Next week the commission will designate a swathe of Harlem.
