LPC Hearing: 07/30/24 (Approved)
FRIENDS' Testimony:
FRIENDS’ Preservation Committee commends the applicants on their proposal, an improvement over the existing tall and discordant stepped railings that line the building areaway along East 76th Street. The constant height of the proposed railing introduces a harmonious balance to the areaway, and we appreciate the effort to replicate the pattern of existing ironwork on the building in the design of the new railing. We do not object to the removal of a small section of the existing granite curb in order to install a delivery gate at grade.
