we are good at what we do

Professional
Disciplines

Our firm has experience on projects ranging from comprehensive plans, to interior plans, to stormwater management and historic preservation plans. As one of the top planning firms in the northeastern United States, Saratoga Associates has extensive expertise bringing together diverse groups of stakeholders and creating a shared vision based on complementary values and needs.

Landscape Architecture

As landscape architects, Saratoga Associates seeks to articulate the connections between natural systems and people. Through the artful reconciliation of competing needs, we create memorable, meaningful and beautiful spaces in which to live, work and play. Above all, we strive to make compelling places emerge out of respect for the nature, history, culture and use of a site.

Architecture

The Architecture Studio within Saratoga Associates has a long history of innovative and socially responsible design of new structures and existing buildings. The breadth of our work represents community and regional cornerstones, including educational institutions, government structures, historic properties, commercial venues, housing, and cultural centers. Our Project philosophy strives to combine the delight of design with an environmentally responsible, long–term approach.

Visual Assessment + Scenic Management

Public Interest in visual quality and aesthetic compatibility is becoming increasingly important in development planning and decision-making, guiding how regulators consider and act on proposed projects. Saratoga is of the most respected providers of visual impact assessment services in the country. The Saratoga Team served as select peer reviewers of the groundbreaking NYS Department of Environmental Conservation guidance document on assessing and mitigating visual impact. As landscape architects, architects, engineers and planners, consideration of the aesthetic quality of the visible landscape, no matter the project type or size, is founded in our core environmental values.

Planning + Economic Development

For forty years, Saratoga Associates has worked with counties, municipalities and the private sector to build both fiscal and ecological sustainability into community plans. Our plans recognize the building blocks of a community: public gathering places, pedestrian–friendly spaces, and the connections between home, work, commerce, and recreation. Our economic development studies help our clients identify their best assets and devise strategies to capitalize upon them. Our approach to public participation ensures that the diverse constituencies are recognized and integrated into the planning process, which in turn translates into public ownership – essential to plan adoption and implementation.
