I didn't know what the "Utica Aud" was, so I googled it:


In 2011, The Utica Memorial Auditorium was designated as a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Civil Engineers in recognition of its innovative cable suspended roof. The Aud is the world’s first pre-stressed dual cable roof system. Architect Lev Zetlin's design used struts between the cables and was the predecessor to the many modern dome designs that we see today, including Madison Square Garden.


If Madison Round Garden were to be designated as a civil engineering landmark, like the Utica Aud, would that mean that it could not be torn down?
