Check out this online article in the West Side Spirit, sharing a bit of info about LANDMARK WEST!’s quarter century of preservation advocacy on the Upper West Side.  

**Spoiler alert!** Some of our favorite lines, below …

“We don’t want the Upper West Side to become a Disneyland, where everything is just a facade.  We want there to be something tangible …  It’s probably not sexy, what we do, but it’s essential.”
~~ Arlene Simon, president, founder and citizen activist extraordinaire.



On the protection that landmarking provides and the responsibility it instill in property owners: “Yes, people may have to go through more bureaucracy … but their neighbors do too.”
~~ Kate Wood, executive director and glass-half-full expert.
