Description: "Morningside Heights has a rich history which is embodied in its buildings, green spaces and streetscapes. These elements contribute to a sense of place and certain expectations about our quality of life, and proportions of residential and commercial use. Protecting these attributes along with our social, and architectural history is the goal of the Morningside Heights Historic District Committee. To achieve this end we are seeking a historic designation by the Landmarks Preservation Commission."

Description: "A recent spate of development threatens to change the face of our historic community with luxury housing. From the new apartments on the grounds of St. John the Divine to the former nurses residence diagonally across the street, to what's going up at Jewish Theological Seminary and Union Theological Seminary, our neighborhood is changing, and not for the better. To look into these developments, MHHDC decided to initiate the Morningside Heights Community Coalition (MHCC). This new organization consists of community groups in MSH and individual coops throughout the neighborhood who are working together to try and have an impact on these projects."
