Bayside Historical Society
Landmarking Success Stories
As part of Bayside Historical Society's core mission, we are currently advocating for more individual and district landmarks to be designated, both here and across Queens, and to a larger extent, NYC as a whole.
Queens, when compared with Manhattan and Brooklyn, has very few landmarks and landmark districts. Many other landmark-worthy places in Queens are extremely important to NYC’s cultural integrity. BHS feels it is imperative to have more.
The success stories below are a lasting achievement for the people of Bayside and NYC, and they were accomplished through hard work, passion, commitment, and support from neighborhood residents who wrote letters, attended hearings, or just helped spread the word. Together, we can keep history alive!
