ABOUT THE AWARDS
The New York Landmarks Conservancy has been a leader in preserving, restoring, and reusing New York City’s architectural legacy for over five decades. The Moses Awards are the Conservancy’s highest honors for outstanding preservation work and recognize individuals, organizations, architects, craftspeople, and building owners for their extraordinary contributions to preserving our City.
We are grateful for the generous support of the Henry and Lucy Moses Fund, which makes the Awards possible. Lucy Goldschmidt Moses was a dedicated New Yorker whose generosity benefited the City for over fifty years. Mrs. Moses and her husband, attorney Henry L. Moses, shared a wide range of philanthropic interests. “I don’t think we’re worth anything unless we do for others,” said Mrs. Moses in a 1983 interview with The New York Times.
