The New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC), formed in 1965, is the New York City governmental commission that administers the city's Landmarks Preservation Law. Since its founding, it has designated over a thousand landmarks, classified into four categories: individual landmarks, interior landmarks, scenic landmarks, and historic districts.
The New York City borough of Queens contains 82 landmarks designated by the LPC,[a] 4 interior landmarks, and 13 historic districts. The following is a complete list as of 2022[update]. Some of these are also National Historic Landmark (NHL) sites, and NHL status is noted where known.
