alternative preservation
The Island Preservation Project was created by a former real estate developer and a local land planner who decided it was time to use our experience to help preserve Long Island’s natural environment. We accomplish this by using our knowledge acquired from developing land and applying it to find alternative methods and solutions in order to preserve land and sometimes existing buildings. We want to be part of the solution in improving the pattern of development on the island. We envision an island of walkable, pleasant town centers and parkland interconnected by a network of green trails and bike paths. Neighborhood preserves and pocket parks could be created and linked together. We plan to do our small part to realize this vision by protecting and preserving environmentally-sensitive land that is vulnerable to imminent development.
We buy land and preserve it. We specialize in acquiring difficult to develop and environmentally-sensitive land. Because we often do not need to obtain any permits, we have the ability to close very quickly. If you own a vacant or over-sized property and want an alternative to development, please contact us.
Thank you,
