The Archdiocese of New York and the Immaculate Conception corporation brought suit against the city of Yonkers, the Yonkers City Council and the City of Yonkers Landmark Committee on November 14, 2024. The aim of the suit was to remove landmark status from the church.
A court document dated January 7, 2026 indicated that "the parties are negotiating a settlement to present to the court."
The last event logged for the case on legal intelligence database Trellis was January 19, 2026. No future events are scheduled. A deadline of January 29, 2026 was set for the plaintiffs (Archdiocese of New York, et al) to file their reply papers, if needed.
Today it was heard that the City of Yonkers settled, agreeing to rescind the landmark status of the church interior. According to this source, the issue was discussed by the Yonkers City Council but not put to a vote.
No information about the negotiations and their outcome has been made public by either the City of Yonkers or the Archdiocese of New York.
Stay tuned to learn what you can do to help save this beautiful historic church and home to a warm and spiritually dynamic congregation.
