HARLEM?Writes a distraught tipster, "I just noticed that they knocked down the beautiful Church of the Master at the corner of W 122nd and Morningside Avenue (right). I thought they were just fixing the roof. It was the most beautiful building in the neighborhood. I can't believe nobody protested." In an entertaining Streetscapes column about the history of the 1893 structure, Christopher Gray wrote of the proposed roof repairs. That was 13 years ago. Guess it didn't work out?

SOHO?The Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation just caught a break in their legal challenge against the Trump Soho. From the group's lastest update: "Following the deadly construction accident at the Trump SoHo Condo-Hotel earlier this month, the NYC Board of Standards and Appeals has FINALLY scheduled the hearing on the legal appeal of the city's approval of this project. That hearing is currently scheduled for Wednesday, February 27th at 10 am." The GVSHP is trying to get the Trump Soho's approvals rescinded. [CurbedWire Inbox]
