Adam N.Favro President The project site is located in an Architectural Review District. It is adjacent to two historic buildings—the circa 1883 Queen Anne at 184 South Broadway and the circa Joules Gold 1870 Italianate at 154 South Broadwayas well as bounded bythe historic Greenridge Vice President — g Cemetery to the east. Linda Harvey-Opiteck Secretary Per the City of Saratoga Springs Zoning Ordinance 3.1.2 All Transect Zones 5. Building Dmitriy Yermolayev facades within a streetscape should align with adjacent buildings within the required Treasurer build-to-area of the property. Buildings should be compatible with neighboring buildings Matthew Veitch and general site context. Past President Caroline Cardone The Foundation is pleased that the set-back is similar to 184 South Broadway. However, Giovanna D'orazio the Foundation feels that the fourth floor setback needs be greater. Also there are Brennan Drake concerns about the design since it closely resembles the design of the Saratoga Springs Sandra Fox John Haller City Center. The Foundation also feels every effort should be made to mitigate any Liz Israel potential negative impacts to Greenridge Cemetery. Samantha Kercull Douglas Kerr Richard King In addition,the Foundation hopes that the applicant can find a way to incorporate the Stephen Kyne 1950's vintage"Turf and Spa" sign in their design to allow the sign to be preserved. Our Dorothy Rogers-Bullis Cindy Spence community is losing too many of these iconic reminders of that era. James Kettlewell Thank you in advance for your thoughtful consideration. emeritus Sincerely, Executive Director 54 Samantha Bosshart ^/ ` , Membership& 1/.1( " f�3l�aGe.� Programs Director Adam Favro Samantha Bosshart "41461‹ Nicole Babie President xecutive Director Cc: Larkin Hospitality,Applicant Balzer&Tuck, Architect Bradley Birge, Administrator of the Office of Planning and Economic Development 112 Spring Srrect, Suitc 201 Saratoga Springs, NY 12866 P 318-587-511311 F518-581-1448 ( .....„...„...„, . r ' . ... ...„.. ._ —._ _ 4, .... 41.'At .
