The New York Landmarks Conservancy has been at the forefront of efforts to preserve, restore, and reuse the City’s extraordinary architectural legacy for over 40 years. By saving homes, community cultural and religious sites and preserving neighborhoods, the Conservancy’s work enhances New York’s quality of life and safeguards the City’s character for future generations. Hailed as a national model of enlightened and effective preservation, the Conservancy goes beyond the expected and sets new standards for the conservation of treasured landmarks, revitalizing architecturally significant structures and contributing to a “greener” City. Since its founding, the Conservancy has loaned and granted $50 million and provided countless hours of pro bono technical advice to building owners, both non-profit organizations and individuals.
