Comments We are concerned about a new build directly across the street
from us. The request to divide the current lot (166.61-1-7) into
two lots, so that a new residential home can be built will directly
impact the historical nature of this block on Caroline Street. As
owners in the historical district of Saratoga Springs, we are
under quite stringent regulation by the design review and
historical review boards, should we need to fix any portion of
our dwelling. How can an entirely new structure be held to the
same standards? How can the plans be in adherence to the
same design esthetics that we are held to? To our knowledge,
a new build has not been completed in our neighborhood in
areas that fall under the historic umbrella. Allowing this
variance so that a NEW structure can be built between two
historic structures will certainly change the neighborhood.
