A project to re-examine the boundaries of Newburgh’s East End Historic District and conduct a Cultural Resource Survey of neighborhoods south of Downing Park.

For the NY Statewide Preservation Conference, Liz McEnaney and Naomi Hersson-Ringskog will be highlighting the valued partner in their Building Shells: Building Community. Featuring Nick Edwards of City of Newburgh and Sam Wells of City of Albany, the talk will focus on the unique role of Neighborhood Stabilization Coordinators.

Together with artists, Building Shells: Building Community team seeks to pilot how art and design can harness existing building shells to galvanize residents' interest and participation in the field of preservation. The open call seeks to empower the work of artists, designers, architects, and technologists to positively impact the community.

This is an informal Facebook group that aims to connect the extraordinary ladies that are shaping Newburgh. Whether a planner, activist, historian, journalist, creative or business owner, this is a forum for women of all ages and backgrounds to exchange information, ideas, jobs, opportunities.  #libbylyons
