Bowne House Visitor Center Design Heading to the Landmarks Preservation Commission

The Landmarks Preservation Commission posted its latest meeting agenda for November 26th and it includes an item for the historic Bowne House property. The application states: “Application is to construct a new building on the site, alter pathways, and install fencing.” A rendering of the new building, a visitor center, actually emerged earlier this month. The 1,250-square-foot center includes a gallery, lobby, two restrooms and an office. The facade has a wood-like look with American Cedar sliding barn doors. Once the LPC and the State Historic Preservation Office approve the design, it’ll take two years to build.
