The Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) will review proposed renovations for 19 East 74th Street, a five-story residence on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Designed by Steven Harris Architects, the project aims to modernize the historic five-unit building while retaining its architectural heritage. The property is located between Fifth Avenue and Madison Avenue.
Key changes proposed include the installation of new steel windows within the existing masonry openings as well as new external light fixtures and metal and glass doors. Other elements of the building, such as the existing stone lintels and metal windows on the first floor, will be retained.
The proposal provides a series of historic photos of the property, outlining the plan, as shown below:
The building was originally constructed in 1869 and underwent major renovations in 1930. The proposal is the second time the LPC has reviewed the renovation project, following the rejection of the original plan on August 10, 2021.
The property is less than a block from Central Park. The nearest subway is the 6 train at 77th Street Station in the Northeast.
The LPC plans to review the proposals on February 13, 2024.
