The Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation Office announces the completion of a $472,038 facade restoration at the Lincoln Bathhouse in Saratoga Springs.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation has announced the successful completion of a fa\u00e7ade restoration project at the Lincoln Bathhouse on South Broadway in Saratoga Springs. The $472,038 restoration enhanced accessibility and preserved historical features.<\/p>\n

\u201cSaratoga Spa State Park\u2019s Lincoln Bathhouse is a distinctive landmark at the gateway to the city of Saratoga Springs,\u201d State Parks Commissioner Erik Kulleseid said. \u201cWe are proud of the work to make the building more accessible to all visitors while honoring the park\u2019s historic and aesthetic legacy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Most notably for accessibility, the project replaced a non-functional accessibility ramp with a modern and comfortable one that fits the bathhouse\u2019s design. The terra cotta state seal that graces the front of the entrance has been restored to its original condition. The backlit lettering directly below the seal which has not been working in decades was repaired and modernized. Additionally, the building\u2019s stucco had been repaired and repainted: the door hardware was upgraded and repairs to decorative metal railings and stone made.<\/p>\n

Originally constructed in 1930, the building was built in the Beaux Arts Neoclassical style. Currently the Lincoln Bathhouse hosts the Saratoga Children\u2019s Museum, the State Park Police, and the New York State Court of Claims. It is also set to become the future main office of Saratoga Spa State Park.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span>The project\u2019s restoration design was by Daniel Neary, an architect with the Capital Division of the Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation, while the contracting work was executed by A. J. Catalfamo Construction, Inc. based in Hudson Falls, New York.<\/p>\n

Project Manager Neary expressed his excitement for the return of the original backlighting behind the lettering in the terra cotta entablature above the entrance portico. He shared, \u201cBy day these letters still appear as dark cutouts, but now, with a combination of the new LED backlights and exterior floodlights, when the sun goes down the building\u2019s name shimmers golden below the New York State Seal.\u201d The restored lighting can be seen from South Broadway nightly.<\/p>\n

This restoration project is part of a statewide effort to revitalize and enhance the State Parks flagship sites during the centennial celebration of the founding of New York States Park System. Saratoga Spa State Park is one of the State\u2019s flagship parks with a yearly attendance of around 3.5 million visitors. The park offers a variety of recreational options including a golf course, extensive hiking\/biking trails, an automobile museum, concerts and natural spring baths.
