    Far West Village to have district designation hearings

    Landmarks Preservation Commission  •  Designation Calendaring  •  Greenwich Village, Manhattan

    Two new proposed districts would encompass 50 buildings west of Greenwich Village Historic District. Landmarks took the first step towards expanding the Greenwich Village Historic District and creating a new historic district along Weehawken and West Streets in Manhattan by voting unanimously on September 20, 2005 to hold hearings on the designations.

    As proposed, the Greenwich Village Historic District Extension would add 36 buildings within the three-block area bound by Perry, Washington, Christopher and Greenwich Streets. The district extension would encompass residential, warehouse and stable structures. Landmarks voted unanimously to calendar a hearing with Chair Robert Tierney crediting Council Member Christine Quinn as being instrumental in voicing her district’s desire to expand the protection of the Greenwich Village Historic District to encompass blocks of the Far West Village.

    The full ULURP process will resume on September 14th. On August 3, 2020, the City Planning Commission resumed hearings for the first time since March 16th. Hearings had been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic after Mayor Bill de Blasio signed an executive order halting the ULURP process which allowed the City Planning Commission to cancel its meetings. While other agencies started resuming public hearings virtually in June and July, the City Planning Commission has been a notable holdout until now.
