Village Preservation and fellow preservation organizations from throughout Manhattan will be holding a forum with candidates for Manhattan Borough President, a position currently occupied by Mark Levine.

The primary election will be held on June 24, 2025, with early voting from June 14 to 22. The general election will be held on November 4, 2025.

This will be a unique opportunity to hear from candidates about preservation, development, and planning issues in our neighborhood, and how they will deal with them as Borough President. All candidates have been invited. Candidates so far confirmed are Brad Hoylman-Sigal and Keith Powers.

There will be an opportunity for questions from the public moderated by the host, and the forum will be recorded and shared after. The Manhattan Borough President plays an important role in land use, development, and preservation issues at a borough-wide level.
