In addition to advocating the addition of seven small areas to the existing Clinton Hill Historic District, the Society for Clinton Hill’s latest proposal to the Landmark Preservation Commission also highlights five individual buildings that the group believes are worthy of protection. They are, clockwise from top left, the Romanesque Revival 88th Precinct Station House at 298 Classon Avenue; the William Tubby-designed Unity Church at 182 Gates Avenue; the French Second Empire-style St. Mary’s Episcopal Church Rectory at 230 Classon Avenue, the the Francis Kimball-designed Loeser & Company Stable (currently occupied by the Salvation Army) at 2-20 Quincy Street, and the 1932 M.H. Renken Dairy Company at 584 Myrtle Avenue, an interesting example of early modern design. LPC, your move.
