Broadway Site Plan Review SSPF Correspondance dated 12.8.21 Saratoga Springs Preservation Foundation December 8,2021 Ms. Tamie Ehinger,Chair Design Review Commission PRESERVATION City Hall ir 474 Broadway Saratoga Springs,NY 12866 RE: 120 South Broadway—Determination of Architectural/Historic Significance& Partial Demolition Dear Tamie: The Saratoga Springs Preservation Foundation reviewed the application for partial demolition of 120 South Broadway,the South Broadway Inn and Spa,located in an Architectural Review District. On June 13, 1953,James Benton placed an advertisement in The Saratogian cordially inviting residents of Saratoga Springs and vicinity to the open house of his new Grand Union Motel. Board of Directors Numerous area businesses — Abelove's Linen Supply, Mitchell Tile Company, Starbuck's Department Store, and Standard Furniture Stores—placed advertisements for best wishes and Adam Favro congratulations on the opening. The motel was described as "one of the finest motels in the President northeast." The motel, featuring 60 modern rooms in three separate buildings, was built to Michele Funiciello offset the demolition of the historic Grand Union Hotel that took place the same year. Vice President James Benton served as mayor of Saratoga Springs from 1960 to 1963. In 1964, a natural Lindaar Harvey minerals spring was discovered at the site b workmen drillin for water and Benton named the Secretary p g Y g spring after his wife Rosemary. Dmitriy Yermolayev Treasurer Benton purchased and relocated the then 90-year-old gazebo from 193 Union Avenue (later Tiffany Blair renumbered 255 Union Avenue and today the site of the National Museum of Racing)to house Jaime Butler the Rosemary Spring and used large white marble slabs from the front sidewalk of the Grand Steven Dodds Union Hotel to serve as the foundation of the gazebo. Lannon House Movers was responsible Giovanna D'Orazio for the relocation of the gazebo from the Union Avenue property that Samuel Rosoff once Julia Dunn Sandra Fox owned and used as a summer residence. Rosoff, known as "Subway Sam"was a large NYC James Gold contractor who in a 1947 Times Magazine article noted he "dug $50,000,000 worth (25%) of John Ili ha alller New York City's complex subway system, largely by virtue of his shrewd tunneling into Stephen Kyne Tammany and labor politics. Vincent LaTerra Samantha Nass The motel complex is nearly 70 years old,with the exception of the Crystal Spa that was built Dorothy Rogers-Bullis in 1988 and utilized the Rosemary Spring for its baths. It is representative of a mid-twentieth Sheila Sperling century motel. However,the Foundation did not determine that the complex is architectural) Jason Thomas rY � p Y Maddy zanetti significant since it does not embody any distinct characteristics of a type,period,or method of construction. However, the spring and gazebo located at the site are historically significant. James Kettlewell At the time the spring was discovered, it was the first new well to be drilled in more than 50 emeritus years and it is also possibly the only privately owned spring within the city of Saratoga Springs. The Foundation recommends that the Rosemary Spring,the gazebo,and any remaining marble Executive Director Samantha Bosshart slabs be preserved and incorporated in the civic space of the proposed project. Thank you in advance for your thoughtful consideration. Sincerely, Adam N.Favro Samantha Bosshart President Executive Director 112 Spring street,Suite 203 Cc: Stephen P.

But a contract awarded in Baltimore last week startled them. What made them blink was the name of the successful bidder: Sam Rosoff,the world's No. 1 subway builder. The job, digging a $9 million, seven-mile-long water tunnel under Baltimore,will be Rosoff s first important contract within the U.S. since 1939• Sandhogs had thought that "Subway Sam" had finished with digging. Samuel Rufus Rosoff had dug $50,000,000 worth (25%) of New York City's complex subway system, largely by virtue of his shrewd tunneling into Tammany and labor politics. Then loud-voiced Rosoff,whose short, fat (too-lb.)body conceals a lot of muscle and mustard,practically disappeared from the Manhattan scene just before the war. No one wanted tunnels built then. He popped up only in occasional newspaper dispatches from Mexico City. Down Mexico Way. But Subway Sam had not quit. From his three-room suite in Mexico City's gaudy Hotel Reforma, Rosoff continued digging into 1)the earth and 2) politics. Last July he completed a $lo million aqueduct in Puebla, Mexico for the Mexican Government.Now he is building a $45 million steel mill for Paul Shields, another contractor,who will own and operate the mill. He bought controlling interest in a lumber company in Chihuahua. Last summer he teamed up with Mexican bankers, raised $31/2 million and bought control of the Soo-mile-long Mexico North-Western Railway,which runs from Juarez to Chihuahua. In off hours' Subway Sam, 64,who fancies himself as a ladies' man, has made himself conspicuous in Mexico City's night life.A great partygiver, gambler and promoter of sport and charities, he has found Mexican politicos as susceptible to his loud charms as Tammany Hall was. Down Under.An immigrant from Russia, Subway Sam peddled papers on the tough streets of lower Manhattan,learned to use his fists so well that he has been using them ever since. (Last summer at Saratoga he flattened a Latin American who objected to his favorite song, South America,Take It Away.) content.time.com/time/subscriber/printout/0,8816,804126,00.html 1/2 12/8/21,7:19 AM CONSTRUCTION:The Big Digger--Printout--TIME When Sam got into the contracting business, he had had so little schooling that he could hardly read contracts. But that did not bother him.As he once said: "What the hell, I can always hire college graduates to do the pencil-&-paper work."Now he can read well enough for his purposes: he just skips the big words. Rosoff quickly branched out into building roads and canals, raising sunken ships, running bus lines, etc. He made and lost several fortunes. It was not until 1923,when he discovered Tammany Hall and the political technique of wangling subway contracts,that he really hit the jackpot. Up on a Horse. In a few years, he made millions, cut a wide swath on Broadway. He sank$40,000 in a play, acquired a swank Fifth Avenue apartment,took to horseback riding in Central Park and dealing with such labor racketeers as Joey Fay. In 1937 the murder of a striking sandhog labor leader,whom Sam had supposedly threatened to kill, almost toppled him from his throne. Police held Sam as a material witness, but freed him for lack of evidence. After that, Sam began to fade from the public eye. He did win a $47,000,000 contract to build a third set of Panama Canal locks,but the war canceled it. But now Subway Sam hopes,by showing he has lost none of his drive,to start winning some juicy contracts again.The Baltimore job was down on the books for completion in goo working days. Rosoff was out to better that by a good margin. Click to Print Find this article at: http_1/content.time.com/time/magazine/article/o,.917i,8o4i26,00.html Copyright©2014 Time Inc.All rights reserved.
