Tennis Stadium Eligible for Historic Designation


Local preservationist Michael Perlman shares this very exciting news this morning:

Forest Hills Tennis Stadium Update: Extra! Extra! The ball is closer to being back in court at the Forest Hills Tennis Stadium, which has now been declared "eligible for the State & National Register of Historic Places" (STATE & NATIONAL LANDMARK!), if the West Side Tennis Club supports it. Commemoration & funding incentives for restoration & creative reuse are the benefits. This is my op-ed piece for the Queens Ledger, so feel free to comment & share this promising development, which resulted from 1 1/2 years of advocacy: http://queensledger.com/view/full_story/17359797/article-Forest-Hills-Tennis-Stadium-Has-Local-To-National-Merit?
