From the MMPCIA Landmark Preservation Committee

How familiar are you with the "Ruins" along Mt. Morris Park West—a beloved treasure of the Mt. Morris Park Historic District? While some may recognize them as landmarks, many aren't fully aware of their fascinating history.

Curious to learn more? Click to read "How the Ruins Survived and Why Landmark Protection Matters Today," which includes a detailed New York Times article that delves into their past, highlighting MMPCIA resilience, community spirit, and the vital role of preservation.

But this isn't just about history; it's also about the present. With recent demolitions at 119th Street and Malcolm X Blvd, protecting our neighborhood’s landmarks is more important than ever.
