[MassHistPres] churches

I believe that may be true of interiors but not exteriors

Re interiors see 
THE SOCIETY OF JESUS OF NEW ENGLAND & another vs. BOSTON LANDMARKS COMMISSION (and two companion cases).
409 Mass. 38
November 6, 1990 - December 31, 1990

Note this was a Massachusetts not a Federal case.

Subject to correction, my recollection is that in that case there was no comparable contest re the right to regulate the exterior.
