Free Virtual Program on Historic Preservation Kicks-Off New Series on April 2

SARATOGA SPRINGS — A free virtual program, “Lunch & Learn: Preservation Basics,” will be presented by the city of Saratoga Springs in partnership with the Saratoga Springs Preservation Foundation, at Noon on Tuesday, April 2. 

In this first program of a series, Samantha Bosshart – the Executive Director of the Saratoga Springs Preservation Foundation – will provide a brief history of the historic preservation movement, address common misconceptions of historic preservation, and highlight various architectural styles throughout the Capital Region.  

She will also review the findings of “Saratoga Springs: Enhancing the Values through Historic Preservation,” an economic impact study completed by PlaceEconomics for the city of Saratoga Springs. This report demonstrates the economic value of historic preservation.  

This virtual program, as well as future programs in this series, are to augment land use board members’ knowledge and expertise concerning historic preservation and count towards the annual training required for Certified Local Government members throughout New York State.
