New York City's Landmarks Preservation Commission denied landmark status Tuesday for a building at the site of a proposed Islamic center and mosque near ground zero.

The commissioners voted unanimously against landmark status for 45-47 Park Place. It and an adjoining building are owned by real estate developer Soho Properties, which intends to build an Islamic center two blocks north of the former site of the World Trade Center.

While the public vote was the focus of much debate about the planned Islamic center and mosque, the commission could not have prevented the developers from building such a community center. The commission, by designating the building a landmark, could only have prevented Soho Properties from demolishing the building or significantly altering its exterior.

There is a prayer site in the building currently, so Muslims are peacefully praying in the building already.

"We will continue going forward with the project. It's a project that will build bridges," said Oz Sultan, spokesman for the Cordoba Initiative, the organization behind the planned center. It says the group is "committed to promoting positive interaction between the Muslim world and the West."

Opponents, including former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, have argued against a mosque being so close to the scene of the nation's worst terrorist attack.

Well, then by your logic Nix... they should have a neo-Nazi meeting hall right next door to Auschwitz?

Not saying that its the same thing, but in the minds of a lot of people it is.

Then again, Im all for the free market... if you've got the green, its all clean (just call me IceWulf heheh).

But whatever.

Because it's not. At all. Nazis caused Auschwitz neo-Nazis continue the mentality. All "Muslims" didn't create 9/11, it's not "right next door" to Ground Zero, and it's not a mosque. If you want a to compare, try "Tthey should have an Al Qaeda camp NEAR 9/11". At least that would be accurate.

As long as we foster fear of Muslims, we don't move forward.

for not understanding the difference.

Sit down and have a nice cup of juice...maybe warmed up in the oven for taste?

(Oh yes, I really DID go there... heh)

Of course its not the same thing, but people are touchy up North and (honestly not that bright) so anything Muzlim is bad... especially near Ground Zero.

Besides, when you have Nation of Islam idiots making it worse, and a high percentage of Jews living in NY, well.... here you go.

Never disagreed that people are paranoid, and that they let it run away with them.

I don't know where you "went", but it was certainly right off the face of the earth...

Are you saying Nazism is a religion?

If anyone is trying to claim that "Islam" attacked us on 9/11, then are they also willing to stipulate that "Christianity" attacked Afghanistan in 2001 and Iraq in 2003?

After all, Bush *DID* call it a "Crusade"...
