Note
An American usage that comes from official designation, not navigation. To be landmarked is to have a building or site formally named a landmark, in the noun's sense of a place with historical or cultural significance. Because the designation is done to a property, the participle fits naturally in the passive (the block was landmarked). It also works as an adjective before a noun: a landmarked brownstone, a landmarked district.
Owners of landmarked buildings need approval before altering the facade.
The street sits inside a landmarked district, so the old storefronts must stay.
