Regarding the proposed project at 30 Caroline St, I am in favor of the project if modifications are made to the planned height. I object to the scale and how it fits with the other buildings along the street. 1) In my mind, the review of this project is exactly why this board exists. This building does not fit with that Caroline St block at 6 stories in height. It's too high and will negatively impact the overall Saratoga feel on what is arguably one of the most iconic streets in the city. 2) Sun and Light on the street. A building of 6 stories will cast shade around it throughout the day. This will impact the businesses that have patio and outdoor dining as people like to dine in the sun on a beautiful day. If the building is of similar height to the others, it won't be as noticeable - a fair compromise. 3) Snow and Rain management - Potential damage to the neighboring buildings who assume the run off/snow weight 4) Parking Thank you for your important work on the DRB.
