The New York Landmarks Conservancy has urged the New York Landmarks Preservation Commission to act quickly to protect the many landmark eligible properties in Gowanus, Brooklyn. The Gowanus neighborhood contains many surviving examples of Brooklyn’s industrial heritage. Any changes to the zoning must take into consideration the area’s history and preserve the important sites that are a reminder of the Borough’s robust commercial history. The Commission must protect the structures that should not be lost in the rush to redevelop the area.
