Rules of the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission, Title 63, Rules of the City of New York Rules of the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission, Title 63, Rules of the City of New York Effective January 22, 2019 Bill de Blasio, Mayor City of New York Sarah Carroll, Chair New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission Landmarks Preservation 1 Centre Street Phone (212) 669 7700 Commission 9th Floor North Fax (212) 669 7960 New York, NY 10007 nyc.gov/landmarks Introduction The Rules of the Landmarks Preservation Commission (the “Commission” or the “LPC”) set forth the processes, procedures and standards of the agency. They include the practice and procedures of public hearings and meetings, the application process, the standards for work on designated properties, fees for various types of work, enforcement and standards for the agency’s preservation grant program. Additional standards and definitions are set forth in the Landmarks Law, which is found in Title 25, Chapter 3, sections 301 to 322 of the New York City Administrative Code. A significant aspect of the rules is that they set forth what work may be approved by the Commission’s staff, without having to take the application to a public hearing before the full Commission for a Certificate of Appropriateness. Staff approval is the most efficient and cost- effective way to obtain a permit to do work on designated property and structures. Owners and architects are strongly urged to carefully review the rules, and work with LPC staff, to determine whether and how proposed work can or could meet them. The rules should also be used to help understand what materials are required for a staff approval to be issued. The more complete an application is at the time of submission, the faster the work can be approved. The LPC provides a few different processes for expedited review for certain types of work: an Expedited Certificate of No Effect for certain types of interior work, which can be issued within two days (see sections 2-31 to 2-34), and the “FasTrack” program, which applies to many simple exterior work types on non-visible facades, where a permit can be issued in 10 working days if the application is complete when submitted. For more information on FasTrack use this link to the LPC’s website: https://www1.nyc.gov/site/lpc/applications/fast-track-service.page The official rules for the Landmarks Preservation Commission are published in Title 63 of the Rules of the City of New York (the “RCNY”), the official compendium of rules for all New York City agencies. They can be found through an online portal that contains all of the city rules. Click on “Rules” and then scroll down to Title 63. You can also access the Landmarks Law, referenced above, through this website: click on “Administrative Code” and then scroll down to Title 25, Chapter 3. DISCLAIMER: Because reading the official version of the rules can be difficult for members of the public, staff has reformatted the rules to provide a more user-friendly document to help owners, architects and members of the public understand the criteria for staff level approval of work, as well as other procedures and processes at the Commission. Please note that if there is a discrepancy between the language of the rules in the RCNY and this document, the language in the RCNY is binding.

  • The Invention of Brownstone Brooklyn Suleiman Osman Reviewed By
    67 the true subject is not the place, but the characters that give it life. In teasing out the attitudes, convictions, and values of the gentrifiers, or “brownstoners,” and the many times contradictory impulses that drove them to recreate and “reimagine” a forgotten urban landscape, Osman creates a truly memorable and powerful piece of scholarship. By the end of World War II, the area known as South Brooklyn was a “polycultural, polycentric and polyhistorical cityscape.” Disgusted with the sterility of suburbia and desperate for diversity and “authenticity,” young, highly educated professionals began moving to Brooklyn’s oldest, but now largely depressed, residential district, Brooklyn Heights. A neighborhood ravaged by the flight of wealthy residents to the nascent suburbs in the early 20th century, Brooklyn Heights’ once majestic brownstones were in severe disrepair. While the rehabilitation of these structures and the revitalizing of their urban environment were the most visible elements of this new “brownstoning” movement, its heart and soul was a “do-it-yourself”, counterculture ideology that would have a profound impact on the social, political, and physical environment of the American city. Osman argues that many of these “brownstoners” imagined themselves as urban pioneers building settlements in the wilderness”—out to reclaim, rediscover, and rehabilitate an urban environment lost to decades of decay. Brooklyn Heights quickly became the “birthplace of a new romantic urban ideal”, a jarring juxtaposition to the “dominant modernist ideology of the 1950s.” With Daniel Widis is a first-year DCRP student specializing in Brooklyn Heights providing both the ideological and Placemaking and Real Estate Development.

  • The Politics of Charter School Growth and Sustainability in Harlem
    REGIMES, REFORM, AND RACE: THE POLITICS OF CHARTER SCHOOL GROWTH AND SUSTAINABILITY IN HARLEM by Basil A. Smikle Jr. Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2019 © 2019 Basil A. Smikle Jr. All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT REGIMES, REFORM, AND RACE: THE POLITICS OF CHARTER SCHOOL GROWTH AND SUSTAINABILITY IN HARLEM By Basil A. Smikle Jr. The complex and thorny relationship betWeen school-district leaders, sub-city political and community figures and teachers’ unions on the subject of charter schools- an interaction fraught with racially charged language and tactics steeped in civil rights-era mobilization - elicits skepticism about the motives of education reformers and their vieW of minority populations. In this study I unpack the local politics around tacit and overt racial appeals in support of NeW York City charter schools with particular attention to Harlem, NeW York and periods when the sustainability of these schools, and long-term education reforms, were endangered by changes in the political and legislative landscape. This dissertation ansWers tWo key questions: How did the Bloomberg-era governing coalition and charter advocates in NeW York City use their political influence and resources to expand and sustain charter schools as a sector; and how does a community with strong historic and cultural narratives around race, education and political activism, respond to attempts to enshrine externally organized school reforms? To ansWer these questions, I employ a case study analysis and rely on Regime Theory to tell the story of the Mayoral administration of Michael Bloomberg and the cadre of charter leaders, philanthropies and wealthy donors whose collective activity created a climate for growth of the sector.

  • This Brooklyn Neighborhood Is Cool — and Still Affordable by Adam Bonislawski September 26, 2018 | 7:14Pm | Updated
    In search of a larger apartment with character at an affordable price, Christina Poletto and son Theodore recently moved to Sunset Park. Annie Wermiel REAL ESTATE This Brooklyn neighborhood is cool — and still affordable By Adam Bonislawski September 26, 2018 | 7:14pm | Updated Nikki Grossman had her eye on Sunset Park for some time. Formerly a resident of the Lower East Side, Grossman moved to area rental building The Hamilton in June. She says she was drawn to the 98-unit development, which opened two years ago at 968 60th St., by its amenities (which include a fitness center, landscaped roof deck and screening room) and reasonable rents (studios from $2,200, one-bedrooms from $2,350). Though less hyped than other, more celebrated Brooklyn nabes, Sunset Park’s affordable prices and low-key vibe have been luring residents from other city spots and even other counties in the state. Take Christina Poletto, 42, and her 5-year-old son Theodore, who recently relocated to the neighborhood from Rockland County. For Grossman, who grew up in nearby Gravesend, it was also a repatriation of sorts. “I had been living in Manhattan just for proximity to work, but I had been wanting to come home,” says Grossman, 40, a nurse at New York University’s main hospital. “When I learned about [The Hamilton] and all its amenities, I was very interested.” Nikki Grossman moved into The Hamilton, one of the few Sunset Park buildings to boast amenities like a gym and a screening room. Annie Wermiel Little wonder — despite a wave of commercial development and a steadily rising profile, newly built, amenity-rich apartment buildings are still a rarity in Sunset Park.
