Get Involved- Take Action!
While the Showbox is now designated an Historic Landmark, it is still not saved. But it can be. We still need your support! There is another step in the Landmarks process. We need controls placed on the property to ensure protection.
As the City negotiates controls and incentives with the property owner, we wait. When the Landmarks Preservation Board considers controls, it will be important for the community to show support. There is no action to take at this time, but we will update this page when there is more info and a specific call to action. There have been many delays in this process due to COVID, but we should not forget that this saga is ongoing.
Visit our stakeholders page for a deeper understanding of the power relationships in this complex situation, as well as a breakdown of the historic landmark process.
