    A 1950 trucking warehouse, last used by Saratoga Transportation, stands before the town houses

    Before the three town houses at 689-693 Washington Street were built, the lots held a trucking warehouse dating from 1950. Its last occupant was the Saratoga Transportation Company. A developer bought the property in 1977 and replaced the warehouse with row houses, finished in 1980-81.

    “Formerly the site of a 1950 trucking warehouse last used by the Saratoga Transportation Co., this property was acquired in 1977 by 693 Town House, Inc.”
