Advocates Protest Weakening Of Landmarks Law

Historic Districts Council Board Member Jeffrey Kroessler, Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation Executive Director Andrew Berman, New York City Council Members Ben Kallos, Corey Johnson, and Rosie Mendez.

Bill 775 is supposed to streamline landmark designation. But advocates say putting a strict time limit on how long properties and historic districts can be considered would leave them vulnerable to demolition.
