About the Area

Schenectady is one of New York’s best kept secrets. Its early Dutch heritage is preserved in the historic Stockade district on the banks of the Mohawk River. In 1825, the opening of the Erie Canal changed the character of Schenectady from that of a riverfront town that served as the gateway to the west, to a leader in the Industrial Revolution. Thomas Edison established his Edison Machine Works, later to become the General Electric Company, here in 1886.

Stockade Section of Schenectady Undergoing revitalization, Schenectady boasts of abundant recreational and cultural venues with beautiful Central Park and its nationally recognized Rose Garden; the restored vaudevillian theater, Proctors, recently underwent a multi-million dollar expansion and renovation to accommodate Broadway’s biggest shows.

Schenectady is a cornerstone in the Capital District’s Tri-cities and is a short drive from its sister cities, Albany and Troy. Albany, the State Capitol, boasts the NY State Museum, historic institute, performing arts center, the Palace Theater and the Times Union Center.

Union College Our proximity to major urban areas, Manhattan, Boston, Montreal, as well as the recreational settings of Lake George (Queen of American Lakes), Saratoga Springs (historic race course, national museums and Saratoga Performing Arts Center), Adirondack State Park and the Catskills provide an inexhaustible array of choices for weekend getaways. Sports enthusiasts enjoy some of the finest skiing, boating, fishing, hiking and mountain climbing, all within an hour or two of the Capital District.

Schenectady’s housing opportunities are equally bountiful and range from garden apartments in scenic rural settings to restored urban brownstones. For more information, please visit the websites of local newspapers The Daily Gazette and Times Union.
