Can Houses On the National Register Be Demolished? | NO AI

Most people believe a house listed on the National Register of Historic Places is protected by law. It is not. Listing places no federal restrictions on a private owner, who can gut the house, alter it, or demolish it, and no one in Washington can stop them. That is not a loophole. It is exactly how the law was written.
