In 2022, HDC selected the area around Penn Station as a Six to Celebrate recipient due to the historic resources in the area threatened with demolition by the proposed Empire State Development Corporation’s Pennsylvania Station Project. Almost 40 buildings in the area have been identified in the Environment Impact Statement as being worthy of local, state or national landmark recognition. Losing these structures and the neighboring buildings would create a void in a vital part of midtown Manhattan. Join Save Chelsea’s David Holowka on this walk through the proposed redevelopment area to visit some of the threatened sites such as the Penn Station Service Building, the Heatherton Building, the Stewart Hotel (formerly Hotel Clinton), the Gimbels Store and Skybridge, and more.
