LPC today announced three new grants provided through its Historic Preservation Grant Program, and announced that grant-funded restoration work is officially complete on several designated properties citywide, including three properties in Brooklyn’s Alice and Agate Courts Historic District.

The five new landmark buildings help tell the full story of the Garment District’s historic development. LPC’s designation of these buildings was done in coordination with the Department of City Planning’s Midtown South Mixed-Use Plan.

During Chair Carroll’s remarkable career of public service, she helped shepherd the designation of thousands of new landmark buildings and sites, overseen the approval of some of city's most innovative examples of new design in historic buildings, and launched LPC’s Equity Framework to ensure inclusion, transparency, and efficiency across all aspects of the agency’s work.

New resources advance Commission's goals to deliver improved efficiency and accessibility for LPC's applicants and easier access to information for all New Yorkers
