Dear Mayor DeBlasio,
I strongly urge you to support the proposals by the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation to landmark the remaining undesignated portion of the South Village south of Houston Street, and to rezone the entire South Village with contextual zoning to prevent out-of-scale development and the oversaturation of dorms and other university facilities.
Both of these proposals have strong support from the local Community Board and elected officials. But the current Landmarks Preservation Commission Chair has refused to move ahead with the landmarking proposal, and the new City Planning Commission Chair has not yet agreed to even meet with the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation to review or consider this proposal.
The South Village is a unique, historic community that is imminently worthy of preservation as well as endangered. I hope you will move swiftly to support these proposals and see that your Landmarks Preservation Commission and City Planning Commission move ahead as soon as possible with considering and adopting them.
