According to Brownstoner, the Eberhard Faber Pencil Company Historic District has been created and approved unanimously at today’s LPC Meeting. This is fantastic news!
If there is one thing I absolutely support it’s the preservation of the past. I’ve collected and worn vintage clothing since I was twelve, I’ve worked in the architectural field ever since I’ve had a ‘real adult job’ and even though there are a million issues and drama surround the Astral building, I have wanted to live in it since the first time I saw it. I love everything vintage, antique or just plain old.
So the creation of the Eberhard Faber Pencil Company Historic District as a landmark makes me pleased as punch. Finally, a score for Greenpoint.
