Re: Designating the Remainder of the proposed South Village Historic District
Dear Chair Tierney:
The LPC’s action is needed immediately on the requested designation of the South Village, to ensure that new development at 178 Bleecker Street and 182 Spring Street and the Children’s Aid Society is appropriate in character for the neighborhood, and that the historic buildings of the Children’s Aid Society are preserved. To not do so would be a complete abdication of the Landmarks Preservation Commission’s duties.
It would be completely irresponsible to allow further demolition and development to take place in the South Village without landmarks designation. The LPC has already allowed too many of the important historic buildings in this neighborhood to be demolished, and doing so again here would be a further blemish on the LPC’s record.
The South Village’s history and architecture are a treasure for all of New York City. DESIGNATE THE REMAINDER OF THE SOUTH VILLAGE NOW!
