The Tuxedo Park Board of Architectural Review Process covers:
 
  • New Home Construction
  • Additions
  • Renovations
  • Maintenance
  • Landscaping
  • Kids playgrounds/Treehouses

The Tuxedo Park Board of Architectural Review (BAR) seeks to foster a collaborative approval process with each applicant who wishes to renovate and/or construct on their property and alter their landscape to enhance their property and the community. Our Design Guidelines set forth the design and construction standards expected from each home and property owner in Tuxedo Park. A copy of the Design Guidelines is available in the Village Office by clicking here.

The Village of Tuxedo Park values its listing on the United States Register of Historic Places and seeks to safeguard its unique historic community. As such, the property owner of each home has the responsibility of stewardship in maintaining design and construction standards that make their home and property and the Village of Tuxedo Park an extraordinary place to live for themselves, their neighbors, and future generations.

The BAR consists of 5 voting members. Our members bring together experience from various fields, and we share a passion for preserving our unique historic community. In addition, the BAR is supported by an engineer, a recording secretary, and an attorney. The BAR meets twice monthly on the first and third Mondays of each month at 5:30 p.m. Each applicant is strongly encouraged to discuss their project before coming to a BAR meeting with the Building Inspector. This ensures a smooth, efficient process that enables each applicant to come fully prepared with the proper documentation necessary for their project to be carefully reviewed and approved promptly.
