Congresswoman Yvette Clarke

, who represents all of Propsect Heights, has joined with State and City elected officials in support of historic designation for our neighborhood. In a

letter

to LPC Chair Robert Tierney, the Congresswoman says "I am encouraged by the fact that the initiative and drive for historic designation is an outgrowth of a community survey of the neighborhood's buildings and streetscapes. It is truly inspiring to know that over twenty members of the Prospect Heights surveyed and photographed over 1,100 buildings in the area."
