You may have printed the article but you apparently didn't pursue and 
read the PDF document "The Photographer's Right" which says:

The General Rule
... Property owners may legally prohibit photography on their premises
but have no right to prohibit others from photographing their property
from other locations. Whether you need permission from property owners
to take photographs while on their premises depends on the 
circumstances.  In most places, you may reasonably assume that taking 
photographs is allowed and that you do not need explicit permission. 
However, this is a judgment call and you should request permission when 
the circumstances suggest that the owner is likely to object. In any 
case, when a property owner tells you not to take photographs while on 
the premises, you are legally obligated to honor the request.
