My fellow Bullamankanites:      The correspondent  below tells me stucco as 
a fake replacement for real brownstone is allowed  in Landmark districts 
for the reason he gives.
 
Personally, I don't think a) stucco is anything but an awful "match" and b) 
 brownstone is still available in the USA (pace Portland quarry in  
Connecticut.)
 
And you say, sirs and mesdames, ... what?

I  had heard that, also that most of the stuff is quarried in China 
nowadays and  really doesn’t look like the historic material so it’s not 
appropriate for a  match, as opposed to cast stone which can be made to order.
