Board accepts revised doors at 40 Main Street after noting deviation from approved design

Village of Cold Spring Historic District Review Board · April 21, 2026

Summary

The board accepted installed doors at 40 Main Street with a required modification to remove the center mullion after noting the installation departed from previously approved plans; vote recorded 4-0-1 abstention.

Owner and applicant Sarena Strauss appeared before the board regarding doors recently installed at 40 Main Street. Board member Todd Seekircher said the installation was a "vast departure" from what had been approved and the owner said she had made multiple attempts to contact Village Hall about the change. K. van Voorhees proposed accepting the installed design if the center mullion on the pair of swing doors is removed. The board approved the doors as proposed on revised shop drawings; the motion was seconded by Vice Chair Lauren Wallis Hall and recorded as 4-0-1 (T. Seekircher abstained).

The board's action resolves the immediate compliance issue by accepting the revised door design contingent on the single recommended change. The owner did not dispute the board's characterization of the earlier deviation and consented to work with the board on the required modification.
