Historic Preservation and Home Sales

- Category: Real Estate
Earlier this year, Village Trustees reviewed the results of an extensive Historic Resources Survey of Scarsdale Village. The study was commissioned by the trustees as part of an initiative to safeguard Scarsdale’s historic buildings which are not protected from demolition by the current Village code. Li/Saltzman Architects and Professor Andrew M. Dolkart reviewed almost every structure in the Village and researched historic information. In their study, which is posted on the Village website, they list 81 village structures that they believe warrant protection. However, the Board has yet to formulate a new law to prevent these buildings from being torn down. In the interim, the Scarsdale Forum is recommending a moratorium to “deny the teardown or significant alteration of the 81 structures listed.” This moratorium would be in effect temporarily to give the trustees time to “prepare, hold hearings and ultimately enact an amended statute for Historic Preservation.”
A meeting on Historic Preservation will be held at Scarsdale Village Hall on Monday night November 19 at 6:30 pm. Residents are invited to attend and learn more.
