What is Up at the Upper Works? History of the Village of Adirondac In-Person
Join SUNY-ESF’s Newcomb Campus Associate Director and long-time Newcomb resident Paul B. Hai for a multi-faceted exploration of the rich history of the former Village of Adirondac, also known as the Upper Works, located at the Head of the Hudson River. The Village was created in 1829 to support what became the McIntyre Iron and Steel Company. It has been abandoned and reoccupied twice, and today is the southern entrance to the High Peaks Wilderness area, as well as a singular site of historic industrial engineering. Co-sponsored by the Adirondack Mountain Club. Please register online.
