Last chance tomorrow for historic 135 Bowery

From the EV Grieve inbox via the East Village Community Coalition...
Dear neighbor,

135 Bowery, between Grand and Broome, needs your help. In June, this 1817 Federal-era rowhouse was designated an individual landmark by the Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) but the future of the building is still uncertain. The next step in the process is tomorrow's City Council vote.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

Call Councilmember Margaret Chin's office and tell her to support landmark designation. The community wants it and the City has deemed the building a landmark!

Councilmember Margaret Chin
212-587-3159

Please attend the hearing tomorrow, September 15, at 11 AM, 250 Broadway, Committee Room, 16th Floor. Be sure to bring valid ID.

If you're attending the meeting, please let me know. If you're unavailable, please pick up the phone and call Councilmember Chin's office right away.

Sincerely,

Kurt Cavanaugh
Managing Director
