The Saratoga Springs Visitor Center, located at 297 Broadway in Saratoga Springs, Saratoga County, New York, in the building known historically as "The Drinkhall", was built in 1915 as a trolley station by the Hudson Valley Railroad. It was designed by Ludlow and Peabody in the Beaux Arts style.
The building consists of four sections. The three-bay, stuccoed central block is flanked by lower 1+1⁄2-story, three-bay wings. The rear section has an open porch that served as the trolley platform. It is constructed of hollow red clay tile and topped by a slate hipped roof. The building features a decorative frieze with arrowhead motifs and decorative panels in the Beaux-Arts style. The interior of the central block features a high barrel vault ceiling.[2]
The Drinkhall was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[1]
