Come out on April 9 to protect the character and scale of Prospect Heights!


The movement for designation of a historic district in Prospect Heights is gathering momentum. Following PHNDC's request to the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission for an evaluation of a Prospect Heights Historic District, LPC will present its proposed boundaries for the district at a community forum on Wednesday, April 9 beginning at 7:00PM. The forum will be held at P.S. 9, 80 Underhill Avenue (between St. Marks Avenue and Bergen Street). Representatives from LPC will also answer questions from residents and business owners.

Your support is critical at this important moment in thel initiative to protect the scale and character of Prospect Heights. Make sure LPC understands Prospect Heights needs historic designation before another building is lost!

I went, even though I do not own a landmarked building. It was very informative and I was glad to see a very large turnout.

Two events were announced!

Trim the trees on Vanderbilt on May 3rd, and Taste of Prospect Heights on June 7th!

Yeah!

I was there, too. The crowd seemed generally in favor of the designation. There were a few grumpy Guses grouching about windows and whatnot.

Taste of Prospect Heights? Sounds great. (Making mental note to attend).
