New York has the greatest collection of architecture and the most distinguished “Living Landmarks” in the country. It is our pleasure to help maintain the City’s rich architectural legacy and honor the illustrious people who contribute so much to New York.

The New York Landmarks Conservancy is dedicated to celebrating, preserving, and protecting the iconic buildings and diverse neighborhoods that define this vibrant and extraordinary City.

The Conservancy is the only private organization that provides both financial and technical support in this effort. Since its founding in 1973, it has granted or loaned more than $40 million to help people save their homes and communities, including cultural, religious, and social institutions. These grants and loans have in turn mobilized over $1 billion in more than 1,550 renovation projects throughout New York, revitalizing neighborhoods, providing much-needed economic stimulus, and supporting local jobs. No other organization is engaged in such a hands-on way in sustaining the City’s unparalleled architectural heritage. Our work generates employment, promotes tourism, and enhances the quality of life for all New Yorkers.

The Living Landmarks Celebration is a fun and festive way to honor outstanding individuals who make New York “New York” and help the Landmarks Conservancy maintain its vital programs.
