2004 Projects<br />

Furthering the Field<br />

1<br />

<strong>The</strong> unique Fire Watchtower in Mt. Morris Park was<br />

assisted with Technical Services Center guidance as<br />

well as an Upper Manhattan Historic Preservation Fund<br />

grant (1). We also advised the restoration of 110<br />

Bridge Street’s colorful cornices (2) and provided an<br />

easement for 164 East 70th Street (3).<br />

TSC hosted and presented at a range of conferences. TSC Director Alex<br />

Herrera delivered a slideshow lecture on the evolution of Manhattan’s<br />

Stone Street at the American Planning Association’s annual conference in<br />

Washington DC.<br />

In conjunction with the <strong>New</strong> <strong>York</strong> Council of Cooperatives and<br />

Condominiums, TSC held two evening seminars that examined solutions<br />

to the varied restoration and conservation challenges posed by <strong>New</strong><br />

<strong>York</strong>’s unparalleled stock of historic apartment buildings.<br />

And on March 27, the Conservancy and the Association for<br />

Preservation Technology (APT) sponsored a one-day symposium, State<br />

of the Art Techniques for Monitoring and Protecting Historic Structures.<br />

Over 400 attended the program at Columbia University.<br />

Easements<br />

A voluntary legal agreement between a<br />

property owner and a non-profit organization<br />

that restricts future changes to the<br />

property and requires cyclical inspections, a<br />

preservation easement assures that historic<br />

properties are well maintained. In 2004,<br />

the Conservancy accepted eight new<br />

preservation easements, all in Manhattan.<br />

• 55 East 92nd Street<br />

• 113 East 19th Street<br />

• 100-104 Fifth Avenue<br />

• 83 Riverside Drive<br />

• 164 East 70th Street<br />

• 41 Warren Street<br />
