he New York Landmarks Conservancy is dedicated to preserving, enhancing, revitalizing,
and reusing architecturally significant buildings in New York City and State. Since 1973, the Conservancy
has advocated for preservation in Washington, Albany, and at City Hall. In
addition, we are the only preservation organization in New York City - and one of the few in the country
- with the financial and technical resources to actually make preservation happen.
Since its founding, the Conservancy has provided more than $30 million in grants and low-interest loans, accompanied by countless hours of
hands-on technical consulting, to owners of
historic homes, businesses, schools,
houses of worship, theaters,
cultural institutions, affordable housing units,
and community centers. This work revitalizes neighborhoods and preserves the character of our City for future generations.
The Conservancy makes valuable information available to the public through the
Preservation Hotline,
lectures,
books, and the technical journal
Common Bond.
Our exclusive tours offer
a behind-the-scenes look at some of the City's great historic places. We recognize leaders and outstanding restorations with the
Chairman's Award and
Lucy G. Moses Preservation Awards,
and we create new ambassadors for preservation through our signature
Living Landmarks gala.
The Landmarks Conservancy has not achieved success alone. We partner with other preservation organizations,
public agencies, the
real estate
community, construction and design professionals, and a long list of faithful
corporate,
foundation,
and individual supporters.
