List of National Historic Landmarks in New York
This list of New York National Historic Landmarks includes all of New York State's National Historic Landmarks and certain other United States federally designated historic sites that are ceased under the supervision of the National Park Service . These can include buildings, other structures, objects, sites and districts that meet the criteria for national importance. There are 260 such entries in New York , more than 10 percent of all such protected areas in the United States and more than any other state. These include the 20 National Monuments, National Historic Sites, National Memorials and similar sites of historical importance, seven of which have also been declared National Historic Landmarks. This list here covers all of these entries.
In Upstate New York are 138 of the New York National Historic Landmark, 13 are located on Long Iceland and 109 within the city limits of New York City . The county with the most of these protected areas is New York County (better known as Manhattan ) with 86; Westchester County just north of the city has 17 and western Erie County has 10. Eleven other counties have five to nine NHLs, and 27 others have one or two such sanctuaries. The remaining twelve of New York's 62 counties have no such entries.
overview
The National Historic Landmarks in the state of New include nine prehistoric or other archaeological sites, 12 historic farmhouses, mansions or building ensembles from the Dutch colonial era, and 21 architecturally and / or historically important sacred buildings. 26 National Historic Landmarks are strictly historical, including 13 forts (five still standing forts, three house castles and five ruins), five battlefields, seven other military buildings and a shipwreck. Only one of these 26 entries relates to the Civil War , the rest were relevant to the French and Indian War and the American War of Independence .
There are ten ships among the New York NHLs, including a warship and a WWII tug . a warship that took part in the Vietnam War , three sailing ships , two fireboats and two lightships , 24 mansions and four sites that are primarily important because of their garden landscape. Many thousands of structures are contributing parts of one of the nine National Historic Landmark Districts . 22 of the entries serve or were used for education, teaching and research, ten others relate to inventions, inventors or scientists and four are outstanding engineering achievements, including two bridges that were once the longest of their kind. Commercial structures include eleven historic skyscrapers, five of which were once the tallest in the world, seven stock exchange buildings and other structures important in the state's economic history, two bank buildings, five industrial facilities and three hydraulic structures . Two of the entries are architecturally peculiar.
Four mentally ill care facilities are a legacy of the state's leadership in the field, 14 sites are significant through the campaign to establish women's suffrage or other female leaders, five through the Underground Railroad or otherwise with abolitionists, and six are African American leaders , three with trade unionists and four with other social activists. There are also 21 homes of national leaders and six government buildings of national importance. After all, two municipalities of utopians , Adirondack Park and four of its Great Camps, and five other wildlife sanctuaries are among the national historical sites in New York. The houses or studios of nine artists and nine writers or composers were declared National Historic Landmarks, as were four club buildings and eight event locations or houses by the entertainers. Sixteen of the entries are difficult to classify.
Among the architects whose work is represented within the NHLs in the state are: Alexander Jackson Davis (7 buildings), Andrew Jackson Downing (2), William West Durant (2), Leopold Eidlitz (2), Cass Gilbert (2), Rafael Guastavino , Henry J. Hardenbergh (2), Raymond Hood (3), Philip Hooker (2), Minard Lafever (7), John McComb Jr. (3), Frederick Law Olmsted (3), Isaac G. Perry (2 ), George B. Post (3), James Renwick, Jr. (4), Henry Hobson Richardson (2), Louis Sullivan (2), Richard Upjohn (6), Calvert Vaux (6) and Frederick Clarke Withers (2) . The architecture firm McKim, Mead, and White was involved in the design of at least six buildings that were later declared a National Historic Landmark. It was also the work of these architects, the Pennsylvania Station , whose planned demolition in 1963 called the conservationists in New York City on the scene and in 1965 led to the establishment of the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission .
