ARCHITECTURE: FACADE WORK AT 95 WEST 119TH

We noticed that the large building at the corner of 119th and Lenox recently started some restoration work on the facade.  If the owner decides to really go for an accurate renovation, then the large missing cornice at top might be replicated and added back on.  This is usually not the case because of cost factors but this building is actually in the historic district so some subsidies might be available.  Homeowners of historic buildings might want to check out the Landmark Preservation Commission page on available grants: LINK
