Babylon Village Heritage Conservancy

PLEASE NOTE THAT TWO HISTORICAL SITES WILL BE DEMOLISHED WEDNESDAY APRIL 4TH BY KEN ROGERS AND HIS COMPANY. JOIN US AT 10:45 AT 73 WEST MAIN STREET TO PROTEST THIS DEMOLITION. BOTH OF THE BUILDINGS ARE IMPORTANT TO THE HERITAGE OF BABYLON AND THE SURROUNDINGS. WE MUST MAKE SURE THAT DEVELOPERS REALIZE AREA RESIDENTS ARE OPPOSED TO DEMOLISHING SUCH BUILDINGS. IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT ANYONE WHO CAN JOIN US COMES TO HELP.

From Save Historic Babylon Village Group. It is with great sadness that I inform everyone, there is a demolition permit to tear down the historic South Side Signal Building (aka The Red Lion English Pub) and the Selah Smith Carll home (a.k.a Aunt Julia’s house/Brosnahan Law Office). There has been no response from the Village or Town of Babylon regarding the petition. Currently, the voices of over 2000 people are being ignored. We hear the demolition is scheduled for Wednesday April 4.

Don’t know if you saw it but several board members were interviewed by Channel 12 News and CBS last Monday!!! We told them we need a code to help save heritage buildings!

Zoning meeting re Red Lion and Brosnahan office is at 8:00 pm TONIGHT at Village Hall.
