My latest #localHistory post looks at my hometown's biggest park, Collins Park, long a center of community along the #MohawkRiver. As some old pictures show, it was sometimes hard to tell apart from the river during floods. I also found a surprise (short-lived) race track once on the grounds of the park.

This is an old #rppc #postcard that I bought at a shop in #Schenectady a couple of years back. Fascinated with it but never sure just what to do with it. It's a real photo postcard showing "Dick on Mohawk River at Schenectady in 1917 while working in G.E."
General Electric's main plant was very close to the #MohawkRiver, and I can attest that even decades later, the river was subject to some mighty freezes.

On my #Localhistory blog, I explore some of the history of the 1730 building that houses the cutest little library in the world (in my estimation), and one of the places that fundamentally shaped me. Here's the story of Scotia, NY's Abraham Glen house:

My great great aunt's house in West Glenville, NY, where I spent many summer days in the 1960s and '70s. While it had electricity, it did not have indoor plumbing. We had to draw water from the pump in this picture – drawn through shale, it was quite tasty (though the rag on the spout is to catch rust from the mechanism). After she died in 1985, the house was modernized and is not recognizable anymore.

Downtown #Schenectady NY, probably autumn 1977. A dreary day in what was then a dreary place, even though I loved it. The Proctor's Theatre on the left has survived and expanded, the old local department store hung on into the early '90s, everything else has changed. The buildings are mostly still there, and renovated. Looking at this I mostly remember how bad the air quality was.

My latest #localhistory post covered an #IceCream factory that ran for decades in an old school building in my hometown. They used some really progressive/aggressive marketing for the time, and featured flavors like "peacharoon" and "lalla rookh." If you guessed the three flavors in their "mystery brick," you won a year's supply. (And the winners were published in the paper, so their friends knew who had free ice cream.)

My latest #LocalHistory post has more than a tiny element of #PersonalHistory, as it's about my elementary #school (and its predecessor of the same name). I was lucky enough to find some great #ClassPhotos and shots of the #playground, where I spent thousands of hours of my youth.

What if Scotia, NY's Glen-Sanders Mansion had no Glens, no Sanderses? That's what happened in 1963, when Mrs. Pearl Sanders sold the historic house dating to 1713. For years, it looked as if the mansion could be lost at any time.
In my latest post, I take a look at the history of the mansion – the very symbol of my hometown – from 1963 until today, when its fate is again uncertain.#localhistory #histodons #scotiaNY #schenectady #SchenectadyHistory #ScotiaHistory
