Implications of the Grand Central Terminal Litigation and Likely Effects on State and Municipal Government Programs HERBERT GLEASON* I was asked to predict some of the likely effects of the Grand Central' litigation on state and municipal government programs. First, the decision may make us complacent. Second, more aggressive legislation will be enacted to protect landmarks. Third-a warning rather than a prediction-landmark designa- tions should be made with great care because we certainly are going to see more litigation in the area. As to the first point, we should not be complacent as a re- sult of the Penn Central decision. The opinion of the Court is really a fiat rather than an analysis and, although Justice Bren- nan appears to deal with every argument that was raised against the designation of Grand Central Station as a landmark, most of the time he simply says the railroad's argument has no merit and goes on.
