Van Hoesen House Makes "Seven To Save" List
ALBANY,
NY- February
10, 2009 - The Preservation League of New York State announced
it's Seven to Save
list
at the New York's State Capital and Van Hoesen House was second
on the list. "This site exemplifies the themes of Dutch
settlement along the Hudson River and its tributaries,"
said league president Jay DiLorenzo. "Unfortunately,
many of the valued historic resources ... are threatened by
insensitive, ineffective or insufficient public policies,
general neglect, and in some cases, outright demolition."
This
prominent listing is an important boost for the eventual preservation
of Van Hoesen house. The illustrated Van Hoesen House information
sheet provided at the press conference is available for download
