Frost Building, Staten Island Hospital (S. R. Smith
Infirmary), 101 Stanley Avenue, 1889, Alfred E. Barlow. Heard 1991, but not designated by the Landmarks Preservation Commission. The Commission's failure to designate and regulate this building led a string of failed developers to strip it of its detail and leave it in its current lonely state. |

Disosway House, 429 Clove Road, built ca. 1800. This house doesn't look endangered, does it? It is beautifully maintained. However, every old house sitting on a large piece of land like this one is fair game for developers to demolish and replace with large numbers of townhouses. A Request for Evaluation has been submitted to the Landmarks Preservation Commission. It is under consideration. |
| St. George Theater, 25 Hyatt Street, opened
December 4, 1929. Architects: Eugene DeRosa and James Whitford. Owner: George
Fakiris. Seating 2,956, it is reputed to be the second largest stage in New York City. The interior is lavishly decorated in a Spanish style. The theater is not in use and its future is uncertain. The owner proposes to build a 17-story building on the lot next door. A request for evaluation has been submitted to the Landmarks Preservation Commission. It is under consideration. There has been political support for its renovation, but no action to date. |
