Suzanne DeChillo/The New York Times Roberta Brandes Gratz in her apartment on Central Park West.Roberta Brandes Gratz, a member of the Landmarks Preservation Commission known for taking a hard line on protecting historic buildings, has been removed from the commission after seven years. She is expected to be appointed to the mayor’s sustainability advisory board.
“I obviously have a lot of mixed feelings because I care deeply about what goes on at Landmarks,” said Ms. Gratz, whose last day was Oct. 26. “I also love the idea of working on sustainable development issues.” Both appointments, made by the mayor’s office, are nonpaying.
