I believe that being listed on the register makes it a lot harder to tear down a building, but it can still be done with enough political or financial pull (eg. Wal-Mart flattening Dixmont State Hospital, listed on the register November 28, 1980).

MCS was supposed to be demolished in 2009 using federal stimulus money.

Hard to say if he was involved with MCS, but it does not show up as one of his projects at Wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.or...lheimer_&_Wagner
