"Bringing more people into downtown Saranac Lake will also benefit the community, including the village’s historic district, building on the community’s character and catalyzing Main Street investment. Fifty years ago, government agencies were moving out of population centers in support of car-centered office complexes. This move will reverse that trend and promote sustainable development in a walkable downtown."

— Erin Tobin, Executive Director of Adirondack Architectural Heritage

Adirondack Architectural Heritage supports the APA's relocation to the Paul Smith’s Electric Light & Power & Railroad Company Building.
