New landmarks designated across the city

The Landmarks Preservation Commission voted today to extend the
Greenwich Village Historic District for the second time in four years,
bringing the total number of landmark properties the district to 2,320. The
expanded district, the largest historic district in New York City, now
encompasses 235 tenement buildings, institutional buildings and
rowhouses. The commission also granted landmark status to two sites in
the Bronx: the Haffen Building, a seven-story Beaux-Arts-style building in Melrose and the Noonan Plaza Apartments in Highbridge, an Art Deco-style rental complex built in 1931. TRD
