A preservation group, Landmark West, is calling for the Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) to hold an emergency hearing about the non-landmark status of the West-Park Presbyterian Church on the Upper West Side. Area residents have seen workers removing pieces of the 116 year old church's interior, located on the corner of W. 86th Street and Amsterdam Avenue. Information from the Department of Buildings (DOB) regarding the site is somewhat confusing as there is a denied work permit for construction of a 21-story building, a stop work order from 2008 and an approved work order for interior demolition all on record.
