The Station Project
The Sacandaga Station Project consists of the restored Train Station (2002-2004), the design and construction of three clusters of 4-season Cottages (the Village, the Station Area and the Lakefront; 2006-2015), a small Marina, a Pickleball Club with outdoor courts and an Indoor Sport Hall (2021-2022), and preserved open space. The project is located on a 10acre parcel in the hamlet of Sacandaga Park along the Great Sacandaga Lake. The starting point of the project in 2002 was a Station building that was about to collapse for lack of maintenance, a large area of concrete debris left over from the demolition of the former Community Theatre, an overgrown Art Park, legal issues about the lakefront and the Sacandaga Park Beach, neighbors who had infringed on the property from all sides and, most importantly, the absence of a vision to preserve the architecture and venues of the Historic Sacandaga Park cottage community that flourished here from the late 1800's till the 1960's.
