The members of Community Board 7 voted last night not to include 214 West 72nd Street, the childhood home of Dorothy Parker, in the on-tap historic district extension. The board's vote isn't final?the decision is up to the Landmarks Preservation Commission?but its argument is that the building has been too extensively damaged, with foundation cracks and an eastward tilt of about two inches, for it to be salvaged. The Corner, j'accuse! [DNAinfo; previously]
