An Albany Grande Dame Reborn$150,000 EPIP loan from League helps ensure success of restoration of Womans Club

The Womans Club of Albany (WCA) was founded in 1910 by Mrs. Elmer Blair as a civic organization

dedicated to helping women and children and improving the conditions of the City of Albany.

Educating the community about the problems facing Albany, the Club rallied support for many civicprograms still in place today.

The Club fought for the removal of common drinkingcups in schools, pushed the city to initiate city-wide garbagecollection and fire protection programs, and mandatory meatand milk inspection. Largely through the Clubs efforts,teachers enjoyed higher wages and the first female probationofficer was hired in 1911. In 1914, the Club began itstradition of community outreach and philanthropy.

In 1919, the Womans Club bought the impressive three-story brick building at 725 Madison Avenue to serve as its head-quarters. Built in 1895 as the residence of Joseph Steefel, oneof two brothers who owned a clothing store on State Street inAlbany, the Chicago prairie-style home was designed bythe Rochester firm of Stern,Nolan and Stern. In 1972,The Womans Club buildingwas included in the Wash-ington Park Historic District,which is on the National andNew York State Registers of

Historic Places, and is desig-nated locally under the Cityof Albany Historic ResourcesCommission.

While the club flourishedfor many decades, by 2003only three elderly membersremained and the house hadfallen into disrepair. In 2004the Womans Club membersbegan to assess the condition

and needs of the property under the leadership ofMarilyn Kaplan of Preservation Architecture and KimberlyKonrad Alvarez of Landmark Consulting. A restoration plan forthe 1895 Clubhouse was developed in accordance with nationalhistoric preservation standards and at the same time theClub began a capital campaign to raise $1.3 million for therestoration project.

Much has already been accomplished. Major repairs to theroof were undertaken in 2005-2008, and a full rehabilitation ofthe second floor ballroom/auditorium was completed in 2009.In 2012, the WCA completed a project essential to the survival

of the house: the restora-tion of the west bay, whichcontains the monumentalstaircase and tall windowswith stained art glass. Thisproject also included conver-sion of the storage closet atthe base of the staircase to anaccessible restroom. This

effort anticipates the nextmajor project at the build-ing, which will incorporateinto the complete restora-tion of the front porchdeteriorated masonry acarefully designed accessibleramp that will provide fullfirst floor access.

The WCA has receivedfunding from The Bender

A loan from the Leagues Endangered Properties Intervention Program (EPIP) is providing

Seven to SaveRaising the visibility of local preservation challenges

Since 1999, the Preservation League has highlighted New Yorks most threatened historic sites

through its Seven to Save list. 2012 marked the shift from an annual list to every two years,

which gives League staff more time to provide enhanced services to bolster visibility and build

support for preservation.

Throughout 2013, well provide updates on the designees. For more information on the Seven to Save program,visit www.preservenys.org. The next Seven to Save list will be announced in 2014.

South VillageManhattan

The Preservation League hasworked with the GreenwichVillage Society for HistoricPreservation (GVSHP) toadvocate for the preservationand protection of the historicSouth Village for over tenyears. In 2003, the League

awarded an $8,000 Preserve

New York grant toward the

cost of preparing a survey ofapproximately 400 architec-turally and historically signifi-cant buildings in a 35-blockarea associated with the im-migrant experience, bohemianand artistic achievements(especially in music) andcounter-cultural movements.

This neighborhood facesthreats from demolition,development pressure, andloss of visual and architecturalintegrity. The Leagues Sevento Save designation in March,2012 helped garner attentionfor the effort to preserve thisarea, including from The NewYork Timesand broadcastmedia.

In its required analysis

of the effects of the NYUand Hudson Square rezon-ings, the LPC has found thatthe proposed South VillageHistoric District is landmarkeligible and that as a result ofthe rezonings would suffer asignificant adverse impact.In spite of this, the Commis-sion has stated that at thistime it has no plans to moveahead with landmark desig-nation. The City PlanningCommission will vote on theHudson Square rezoning inJanuary, and the City Councilwill vote in March.

GARNERArts Center

Rockland County

The Garner Print Works,now the site of the GARNERArts Center, was built in1828. At one time, the plantemployed some 800 work-ers and grew to include theprinting and dyeing of wool,cotton and linen. The plantclosed briefly during the de-pression but was brought backto life in the 1930s by theGarnerville Holding Com-pany, the current owner ofthe complex, which includesmore than 40 buildings.

The not-for-profitGARNER Arts Center wasformed in 2008 to sponsor art

at the Garnerville IndustrialComplex. In 2011, the Main

Gallery and many studiossustained serious damageduring Hurricane Irene, andthe complex was named tothe Leagues Seven to Savelist for 2012-13.

Since then, the GARNERArts Center has received twogrants from the PreservationLeague. The first, a TechnicalAssistance Grant of $3,000provided funding for a Feasi-

bility Study to convert Build-ing #35, the former cafeteria,into new Main Gallery space.

The Center also receiveda $7,724 Preserve New Yorkgrant towards the cost of aNational Register HistoricDistrict nomination for theGarnerville Arts and IndustriaCenter complex. GregoryDietrich Preservation Consulting has completed that nomi-nation and submitted it tothe New York State Office ofParks, Recreation and HistoricPreservation. If approved, thishistoric designation will allowthe center to take advantage ofhistoric preservation incentivessuch as the NYS Environmen-tal Protection Fund grantsand Federal RehabilitationTax Credits.

Voices of PreservationA strong state preservation credit has the potential to set historic, distressed communities on a new course.

As anybody who travels will tell you, New York

State has incredible natural, historic and architec-

tural resources. Rightfully, these assets often drive

local economies and build community identity.

In the case of our historic building stock, many of theseassets lie fallow especially in communities with falteringeconomies. Ironically, sustained disinvestment has preventedirreplaceable architecture from being lost to modernization.

Today, intact historic structures are building blocks forrenewal in distressed areas. With new capital investment, theseassets and their surrounding communities can awaken asunique, experiential places. Places that matter.

My hometown, Medina, is one such place. Born of the ErieCanal, Medina was a prosperous, bustling center of industry in1900. Medina Sandstone quarries, furniture factories, and anHJ Heinz pickle factory kept Medinas grand homesteads andVictorian business district humming.

Over the succeeding decades, fortunes diminished. Butthe community survived with a pulse great enough to keepour built environment alive.

Today, the village is roaring back. The historic centralbusiness district still nearly fully intact is populated with a growing list of

destination retail boutiques and great restaurants. Plenty ofprivate investment is afoot as well.

My own building, the former R.H. Newell shirt factorybuilding, c. 1876, now houses a coffeehouse, yarn store, bar-bershop, law office, and loft apartments. Directly next door, an1852 hotel is now an upscale pizzeria. So many other restora-tions have already come to fruition.

And more projects are in the pipeline. At the four cornersof our downtown stands the 1865 Bents Opera House, a 2012Seven to Save property. The Orleans Renaissance Group, Inc.is in the early stages of a multi-year restoration of the grand,

3-story Medina Sandstone edifice.These projects have helped Medina rediscover itself and

build a new economy around preservation. But more must bedone here, and elsewhere, to continue the momentum.

The enactment of the state historic tax credit was a big start,and its extension is crucial. But for communities like Medina,extension must be paired with legislation to make credit equityaccessible to smaller projects, like the Newell building rehabili-tation. Separate allocation is the key component our currentstate program needs to attract new investors to both small andlarge projects.

A strong state preservation credit has the potential to sethistoric, distressed communities on a new course.

Medina has been fortunate. But with the righttools, every community can enjoy a renewal

rooted in historic preservation.

Pillar of New York GalaHonoring Nicholson & Galloway, Inc. and Building Conservation Associates, Inc.

On November 15, the League presented its annual

Pillar of New York Awards at a black-tie dinner at the

Waldorf-Astoria in New York City. Building Conservation

Associates and Nicholson & Galloway, two leaders in the

preservation of so many of New Yorks quintessential land-

marks, were honored for their contributions to the field.

BCA, founded and led by Raymond Pepi, has been a force in preservationtechnology and planning for more than 25-years. Grounded by its expertise

in building science and historic research, BCA provides plans, specificationsand construction oversight to architects and owners across the country.

Nicholson & Galloway, guided by Mark Haynes and Andrew Wilson,has embodied old world traditions, craftsmanship and values since itsfounding in 1849. Their projects consistently display technically andaesthetically outstanding restoration. In fact, Nicholson & Galloway hashad the distinction of being called back to restore projects that the firmhelped build a century ago.

We were delighted to see so many friends in the preservation com-munity turn out to recognize two of the most important practitionersof the nuts and bolts of saving and maintaining our built heritage saidAnne H. Van Ingen, Chair of the League. The enthusiasm for their workwas deeply gratifying to our honorees. It reminds us of the broad range ofpeople and skills required for the art and science of preserving structures,spaces and communities.

Together, they have contributed to the preservation of many ofNew Yorks iconic landmarks including Rockefeller Center, the New YorkPublic Library, the Museum of Natural History, St. Patricks Cathedraland Carnegie Hall.
