LESPI’s Outdoor Photography Exhibit and Celebration — “Brick and Stone: Landmarking our Lower East Side Heritage”

LESPI’s outdoor exhibit, “Brick and Stone: Landmarking our Lower East Side Heritage” showcases photographs and histories of some of the LES’s most remarkable historic buildings — all of which deserve to be landmarked. The exhibit just opened and already it’s been turning a lot of heads. Stop by Grand Street at the Church of St. Mary (east of Clinton St.) to check it out.

When: September 1 – October 31

Where: On Grand Street, east of Clinton Street, mounted on St. Mary’s and the Grand Street Guild’s fences.

We want to thank the New York City Council and Councilmember Christopher Marte and Citizens Committee for New York City for their generous support; and the Grand Street Guild and Church of St. Mary for their invaluable assistance.

Join us Saturday, September 18, from 12:00-4:00PM when we’ll be tabling at the E 10th Street Annual Block Fair, between 2nd and 3rd Avenues. Along with LESPI volunteers, there will be several merchandise vendors, lots of food, and excellent music

Still celebrating: the landmarking of the Church of St. Mary on Grand Street in April!
