E-BULLETIN OF THE HISTORIC DISTRICTS COUNCIL
February 2014, Volume 11, Number 2
On Tuesday, February 11, the proposed Park Avenue Historic District will have a Public Hearing at the Landmarks Preservation Commission, at 4pm (arrive by 3pm) at the Municipal Building 1 Centre Street, 9th Floor New York, NY 10007. The proposed district encompasses the large sections of the iconic boulevard from 79th Street to 96th Streets which are unprotected and under threat of inappropriate development. The coalition of local advocates has gathered widespread community and political support and will continue their work to ensure the designation of this historic neighborhood. HDC Executive Director, Simeon Bankoff says, “We are very excited to take such a major step for one of our Six to Celebrate groups so early in the year. We look forward to using this momentum to achieve preservation victories on Park Avenue and with our other priority groups.”
