Explore Saratoga Springs, New York: An American Northeast Crown Jewel
Presented by Select Sotheby's International Realty
For more information go to:
Nestled in the foothills of the scenic Adirondack Mountains, historic Saratoga Springs is one of the crown jewels of the American Northeast. The city’s early fame arose from its numerous natural springs, each one producing its own distinctive healthful waters. Founding father Gideon Putnam himself built two renowned hotels to accommodate visitors seeking their legendary benefits and healing powers.
Saratoga Springs has been widely acclaimed as the home of health, history and horses, and for good reason. The famous natural springs and spas have been contributing to our well-being literally for centuries. The city is surrounded by sites simply breathing history. And the extraordinary thoroughbred track is one of the premier sports venues in the United States. Add in all the other attributes of both the immediate area and the region as a whole and it’s clear Saratoga Springs richly deserves its rapidly-growing reputation as one of the finest small cities in America.

Driving Around Schenectady NY After Winter Storm 雪后开车观景
After winter storm, I drove around Schenectady New York, starting from the corner of State street and Nott terrace. Please see the Map at the beginning if you are curious about the actual route. Otherwise, you can just enjoy the ride after snow storm.
Schenectady (/skəˈnɛktədi/[3][4]) is a city in Schenectady County, New York, United States, of which it is the county seat. As of the 2010 census, the city had a population of 66,135. The name Schenectady is derived from a Mohawk word, skahnéhtati, meaning beyond the pines.[5][6] Schenectady was founded on the south side of the Mohawk River by Dutch colonists in the 17th century, many from the Albany area. They were prohibited from the fur trade by the Albany monopoly, which kept its control after the English takeover in 1664. Residents of the new village developed farms on strip plots along the river.
Connected to the west via the Mohawk River and Erie Canal, Schenectady developed rapidly in the 19th century as part of the Mohawk Valley trade, manufacturing and transportation corridor. By 1824 more people worked in manufacturing than agriculture or trade, and the city had a cotton mill, processing cotton from the Deep South. Numerous mills in New York had such ties with the South. Through the 19th century, nationally influential companies and industries developed in Schenectady, including General Electric and American Locomotive Company (ALCO), which were powers into the mid-20th century. Schenectady was part of emerging technologies, with GE collaborating in the production of nuclear-powered submarines and, in the 21st century, working on other forms of renewable energy.
Schenectady is in eastern New York, near the confluence of the Mohawk and Hudson rivers. It is in the same metropolitan area as the state capital, Albany, which is about 15 miles (24 km) southeast.[7] In December 2014, the state announced that the city was one of three sites selected for development of off-reservation casino gambling, under terms of a 2013 state constitutional amendment. The project would redevelop an ALCO brownfield site in the city along the waterfront, with hotels, housing and a marina in addition to the casino.[8]

DJI Phantom 3 - Lock 2 Waterford, NY
In this video you we see a nice yacht leaving lock 2 in Waterford NY, the Oldest Continuously Incorporated Village In The United States and heading south on the Hudson River. This area is where the Mohawk meets the Hudson and is a very historical area. Peebles Island (2:38 in) is the home of Bureau of Historic Preservation Field Services.
On August 17, 1777, Americans retreated south to these islands. They prepared defenses to make a final stand against the British who intended to capture Albany. An American victory at Saratoga, however, made it unnecessary to rely upon the island's defenses. The fortifications consisted of three batteries of cannon protected by earth works all connected by entrenchments for troops. Their design has been attributed to Polish engineer, Thaddeus Koscuiszko.
Peebles Island is also the headquarters of the Bureau of Historic Sites and Bureau of Historic Preservation Field Services. The staff provide technical services, such as record maintenance, analysis of artifacts, and preparation of publications, exhibits and audio visual programs for the 35 historic sites maintained by State.
