  • Esh 24.1 Combined Cover
    173 WHERE WAS EBENEZER EMMONS’ HOUSE? LINDA VANALLER HERNICK New York State Museum, Albany, New York 12230, USA ([email protected]) In Gerald Friedman’s recent paper on Ebenezer Emmons in Volume 25, Number 2, 2006 of Earth Sciences History, the location of Emmons’ house is erroneously assigned to the site of the present Erastus Corning Tower (“44-story office building”) in Albany’s Empire State Plaza. A 1981 paper of Fisher is cited as the source of this information. Friedman’s choice of a rather cartoonish tourist map to illustrate the location gives the illusion that Hudson Street (Avenue) aligns with Corning Tower. Emmons’ address was 159 Hudson Street and the house was situated on the corner of Hudson and High streets (High Street was obliterated by the building of the plaza). If Corning Tower is taken as the site his house would have been located on the corner of Hamilton and High streets (Figure 1). Indeed, when one stands on Hamilton Street the tower is in nearly direct alignment with the street (Figure 2). Ebenezer Emmons’ house was actually located mid-way between Corning Tower and the “The Egg” performing arts center on the Empire State Plaza. Erastus Corning Tower is the highest building in Albany and an icon of the Empire StatePlaza. Connecting the site of Emmons’ house with this building causes the error to be indelibly sustained. One can imagine a plaque being attached to the tower in the future by some dedicated geology historian; once set in bronze the error stands in perpetuity. Figure 1.

Feature attractions between the bombast of Broadway and the charm of Old Montréal include the magnificent Palisades; the Adirondack Mountains; the ruins of world- famous Bannerman’s Castle; the iconic Academy at West Point; the gateway to Catskill Mountain resorts; and the Hudson River Valley that inspired an entire artistic genre with its visual jewel, Lake Champlain. Living history from your train window conjures images of Benedict Arnold delaying the British Fleet at the south end of the lake to prevent the fall of Fort Ticonderoga – an overlooked feat for which he is less remembered than for his infamous reputation as a turncoat.
