Saratoga Architect Blends Nature, History & Sustainability | Phinney Design Group

Speakeasies, Victorian Mansions & Sustainable Design — this episode peels back the architectural layers of Saratoga Springs. Host Mackenzie Zarzycki sits down with Mike Phinney, Principal and Owner of Phinney Design Group, whose work blends modern sustainability with the deep-rooted character of Saratoga’s most iconic landmarks. From reimagining the historic elegance of the 1863 Club at the Saratoga Race Course, to contributing to projects at The Sagamore and Yaddo, Mike shares how architecture can reflect a region’s legacy while adapting to its future. And yes — he even takes us inside his most unexpected creation: a hidden rooftop speakeasy built atop what was once Millionaires’ Row.
