Reply to comment by twinkcommunist in Demolition permits for the Arc Tower DENIED BY Landmark Commission. What a ridiculous joke. by itsjustabreezehoney

If you don’t understand how saying “this is a historic building,” and then showing a different building that doesn’t fit the description of the one mentioned to be at issue isn’t a dishonest argument, I don’t know what to tell you.

“There is a historic building we think should be saved. — “The largest part of the footprint isn’t historic.” — “OK…?”

It's not dishonesty, it's ignorance that I corrected immediately upon finding the right information.

The reddit post is just a render of the completed project, not the article about the commission. No one mentioned the 1899 townhouse in any of the comments I responded to, so excuse me for thinking the (also old) building on the corner would be the one demolished for a tower which is on that corner.

I personally told you that well before you made that comment. So fair enough to owning up to a mistake, but in general, if something doesn’t make sense, it’s good to know that you have the right story.
