The Crown Heights North Historic District officially grows again!
It is now massive....
"U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand and U.S. Rep. Yvette D. Clarke announced Wednesday that the Crown Heights North Historic District was officially added to the National Register of Historic Places.
Earlier this year, Gillibrand and Clarke requested to extend the original boundary in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood previously covered by the National Register after the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission revealed an additional 636 historic buildings, as well as documentation that added significant cultural history to the recognition in the Crown Heights North Historic District. The Crown Heights District was first added to the National Register in 2014, and included over 1,019 historic properties."

Does that affect new buildings that could be added in the future or changes to existing buildings? Or only the "historic properties"?
-
New buildings constructed within the district must now abide by the rules enforced by the Landmarks Preservation Commission.
Howdy, Stranger!
