Moving to a new home can be stressful for your children, as well as for you.

Winter is here. Snow is piling up. Life is good for the winter sports enthusiast.

The 31.4 square mile town of Malta located at coordinates 42°58′N 73°48′W was originally part of the land of the Mohawks, native Americans from the Iroquois nation. There is evidence of Indian habitation near Shenantaha Creek Park dating back to 5000 BC. The Mohawks called themselves Kahnlakenhaka, or People of the Flint Place. Their trade in flint to other tribes, and later furs to the Dutch who traveled up the Hudson in the early 1600's, made them quite wealthy. The British enlisted their cooperation to fight the French during the French and Indian War in 1754. The Mohawk tribe remained allies of the British when the Revolutionary War began. At the end of that war, the defeat of the British and their allies meant that the Mohawks were forced to give up most of their territory in New York.

2015 is here and it's time to make those adjustments for a healthier year.

Welcome to Lakeview Landing. Starting fresh in a new location takes patience, but with determination and a plan, it should be easy to make yourself at home in no time!

In the home improvement sector, the New Year often means fixing up the house, reorganizing the kids’ rooms, finding new purpose for unused spaces, cleaning out the office, or finally getting around to hanging the art you’ve held onto for the past few months.

The recent announcement that GlobalFoundries has acquired IBM’s global commercial semiconductor technology business makes the company the holder of one of the largest semiconductor patent portfolios in the world. The purchase is an additional investment of $1.5 billion in semiconductor technology. This agreement also means that GlobalFoundries becomes IBM’s exclusive server processor provider for the next ten years. The Times Union called it one of the largest business deals in our region's history.

Each home at Lakeview Landing comes standard with a welcoming fireplace. Your choice of a gas or wood Lennox® fireplace brings warmth and a graceful ambience to every Great Room.

Garland is a great way to spruce up your home. It is pretty and festive without being too loud. With 2015 just around the corner, you may want to spritz up your space to usher in the New Year the right way!

New York State has 217 lakes and all of them refresh our spirits, but we at Lakeview Landing think the best one of all is our own Saratoga Lake. Sitting slightly southeast of Saratoga Springs and encompassing the borders of three towns: Malta, Saratoga and Stillwater, Saratoga Lake is officially located at 43° 3' N latitude and 73° 43' W longitude. Fed by the Kayderosseras Creek (we call it the Kaydeross) from the northwest and emptying via Fish Creek at the north end of the lake, the water drains from Fish Creek ultimately into the Hudson River at Schuylerville.
