At its stated meeting on Tuesday, January 26, 2010, the Presbytery of New York City heard a report related to the recent decision of the Landmarks Preservation Commission of New York City to recommend landmark designation of the West-Park Presbyterian Church building. The Presbytery condemned this action and called for this action to be communicated to the members of the New York City Council. It also encouraged Presbytery commissioners to personally contact their councilpersons to relay their concerns about this matter. As this proceeding goes forward, we hope the information in the statement will give further background and guidance to these important steps as presbyters consider how they might be able to become involved.
