Jersey City Landmark Conservancy Inc. is a non-profit organization based in Jersey City, NJ, that is dedicated to preserving and promoting the historic architecture and cultural heritage of the city. The organization was founded in 1999 by a group of local residents and business owners who were concerned about the rapid pace of development and the potential loss of historic structures.

The Jersey City Landmark Conservancy works closely with property owners, city officials, and other community organizations to identify and protect historic landmarks and districts. The organization also provides educational programs and resources to promote awareness and appreciation of Jersey City's rich architectural heritage.

One of the Conservancy's most significant achievements was the successful campaign to designate the Harsimus Branch Embankment as a historic landmark in 2004. This 1.5-mile-long elevated rail line was built in the 19th century and played a vital role in the development of Jersey City's industrial waterfront. The Conservancy continues to advocate for the preservation and adaptive reuse of this unique structure.

Other notable projects of the Jersey City Landmark Conservancy include the restoration of the historic Van Vorst Park fountain and the creation of a walking tour of the city's historic districts. The organization also maintains an active presence on social media and hosts regular events and fundraisers to support its mission.
