KINGSTON – The final draft of the Wilbur and Ponckhockie Neighborhood Architectural Surveys has been completed, and is available at Engage Kingston.
The report is an intensive level, historic, and cultural survey and analysis that represents the first step in potentially listing the two areas, or individual properties, on the State and National Register of Historic Places.
Mayor Steven Noble said the study is “the first step in listing these historically significant communities to the historic registry.”
He said with the completed report, funding can now be explored, and the city has hired a consultant to conduct the research needed to have the properties and districts nominated for listing.
The City of Kingston currently has four historic districts: Stockade District, Fair Street District, Rondout-West Strand District, and Chestnut Street District.
