Project Name 38 Beekman Demolition Project Number 20220613 Project Address 38 Beekman St 7/18/23, 2:13 PM Zimbra https://m.saratoga-springs.org/h/printmessage?id=16958&tz=America/New_York 2/2 Comments Dear Design Review Commission, With the exception of one member, the 15 members of SSADI - Saratoga Springs Arts District, Inc.( also known as the Beekman Street Arts District) - oppose the demolition of 38 Beekman. It is historical buildings like this one that make Beekman Street a unique place and gives our neighborhood its' character. We are working on a West Side Heritage Tour and many of the buildings on Beekman, including this one, have a rich story to tell and deserve a chance to be returned to their former glory. There have been several historic buildings on our street that were condemned but were able to be restored and are now functioning as studios, residences, and restaurants. We join the Saratoga Preservation Foundation and urge you to deny this demolition request. Sincerely, Saratoga Springs Arts District, Inc 143 Grand Ave Saratoga Springs, NY 12866 Attach Photo (optional)Field not completed. Email not displaying correctly? View it in your browser.
