No, they’re two different things. National Register listing is a National Park Service program and is mainly honorary (along with eligibility for tax credits), but Mississippi Landmark designation is a state program through MDAH that gives MDAH authority to designate public buildings around the state and require that any alterations to those designated buildings be reviewed and permitted by MDAH.
