I wish I had thought to add the Old State House. And, Old City Hall. Maybe not "iconic" but good choices?

Trinity Church?

^ Indeed. And the Rectory as well.

This is why prewar buildings should not have been allowed. The current selection is too arbitrary.

It looks like the front runners are all post-war buildings anyway. I thought it best to let it be without limitations because I feel that there are a lot of unsung prewar buildings out there that deserve to be recognized.

I do see your point, though, CZ. I'm thinking that maybe next year we'll have the nominations chosen by committee.
