The New York Landmarks
Conservancy honors distinguished New Yorkers from all
professions as “Living Landmarks” for their contributions to
the City. The Conservancy has led the effort to preserve
and protect New York City’s architectural legacy for nearly
50 years. Since its founding, the Conservancy has loaned
and granted more than $52 million, which has leveraged more
than $1 billion in 1,850 restoration projects throughout New
York, revitalizing communities, providing economic stimulus
and supporting local jobs. The Conservancy has also offered
countless hours of pro bono technical advice to building
owners, both nonprofit organizations and individuals. The
Conservancy’s work has saved more than a thousand buildings
across the City and State, protecting New York’s distinctive
architectural heritage for residents and visitors alike
today, and for future generations. For more information,
