SARATOGA SPRINGS – A new staircase is now open and ready for strolling. Cascading down from Broadway next to Kilwins Chocolates on the side of the Washington Building, 422 Broadway, and wrapping around past Next Summer Home Décor and Accessories, the heated staircase provides a new main artery to Putnam Street. The design was completed with both the community and retail business benefit in mind. Around the parameter of the building are radiant heat and emergency backup lighting, Also, the stairs and landing have hydronics systems that produce direct radiant heat. To complete the project, Bonacio Construction also installed four decorative sconces and one flood light at the top of the staircase.
