Saratoga Springs has a rich heritage dating back to the early 1800s. This picturesque city nestled at the foot of the Adirondacks originally attracted visitors due to its rejuvenating mineral springs. The Saratoga Race Course, the oldest race track in the United States, also brought in an abundance of wealth, which helped develop the stunning Victorian architecture that lines the streets of the city. The racetrack continues to be a hub for summer vacation as the city population triples during the summer months. Saratoga ABCs celebrates the city by spotlighting the people, places, and things that make our wonderful city of Saratoga Springs, NY unique.
