  • Correspondence of Maria Van Rensselaer (1669-1689)
    CORRESPONDENCE OF MARIA VAN RENSSELAER 1669-1689 Translated and edited by A. J. F. VAN LAER Archivist, Archives and History Division ALBANY THE UNIVERSITY OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK I 935 PREFACE In the preface to the Correspondence of Jeremias van Rens­ selaer, which was piiblished in 1932, attention was called to the fact that after the death of Jeremias van Rensselaer his widow carried on a regular correspondence with her husband's youngest brother, Richard van Rensselaer, in regard to the administration of the colony of Rensselaerswyck, and the plan was announced to publish this correspondence in another volume. This plan has been carried into effect in the present volume, which contains translations of all that has been preserved of the correspondence of Maria van Rensselaer, including besides the correspondence with her brother-in-law many letters which passed between her and her brother Stephanus van Cortlandt and other members of the Van Cortlandt family. Maria van Rensselaer was born at New York on July 20, 1645, and was the third child of Oloff Stevensen van Cortlandt and his wife Anna Loockermans. She married on July 12, 1662, when not quite 17 years of age, Jeremias van Rensselaer, who in 1658 had succeeded his brother Jan Baptist van Rensse­ laer as director of the colony of Rensselaerswyck. By him she had four sons and two daughters, her youngest son, Jeremias, being born shortly after her husband's death, which occurred on October 12, 1674. As at the time there was no one available who could succeed Jeremias van Rensselaer as director of the colony, the burden of its administration fell temporarily upon his widow, who in this emergency sought the advice of her brother Stephanus van Cortlandt.

  • Schuyler Flatts Cultural Park 2001 Special Project Award
    Town of Colonie Conservation Advisory Council Schuyler Flatts Cultural Park 2001 Special Project Award Schuyler Flatts is the 17th to early 20th century homestead farm of the famous Albany Schuyler family, including the family’s New World progenitor and first Albany Mayor Philip Peterse and Revolutionary War General Philip Schuyler. In the 1970’s preliminary archeological investigations were done because of a planned sewer construction. Digs uncovered significant Native American and Colonial artifacts. “Schuyler Flatts,” an area of approximately 100 acres, was listed on the State and National Register of Historic Places. The Town of Colonie purchased 2.5 acres of the property and Albany County purchased 9.5 acres, which it later transferred to the Town. In 1981 the site of the Schuyler House was designated a National Historic Landmark. With funds provided by a Clean Water/Clean Air Bond Act request ($375,000) and a grant of $10,000 provided by the Hudson River Greenway, plans were made for the park design and construction was begun in 2001. The Town of Colonie Conservation Advisory Council has overseen the development of this project. The park plan highlights and focuses on four areas that include: the Schuyler homestead, the Erie Canal, the Little River . a natural area including wetlands and a tidal stream, and an area dedicated to Native American history. The initial program suggests uses that are generally passive in nature and ones that will support and complement education and interpretation. Identification of the property and public access to the site will be provided. Within the site support facilities including parking, trails, directional and interpretive signs and facilities will be developed for the public’s use.

  • City of Watervliet Section II. Inventory and Analysis of Existing Conditions
    Section II Inventory and Analysis of Existing Conditions Inventory and Analysis of Existing Conditions Watervliet Overview The City of Watervliet, located 5 miles north of Albany, New York’s state capital, grew along the western bank of the Hudson River. With the Erie Canal and the Hudson River, the City was a significant maritime center during the 19th century. Since the 1970s, the City has been separated from the River by Interstate-787, a major limited access highway that connects downtown Albany with the City of Cohoes, north of Watervliet. Watervliet, at 916 acres, or 1.3 square miles, is one of the smallest communities in Albany County. It is approximately 150 miles north of New York City, 200 miles west of Boston, and 200 miles south of Montreal. The Town of Colonie encircles Watervliet on three sides, with the Hudson River forming the City’s eastern View from Hudson Shores Park. boundary. Other neighbors include the Village of Menands to the south, the City of Cohoes and the Village and Town of Green Island to the north, and the City of Troy across the river to the east. Like many other small cities and villages across New York State, Watervliet has experienced a population decline in recent years. While the City’s overall population is decreasing, the City is becoming more diverse. In addition, as the number of residents decreases, the City’s elderly population is increasingly comprising a larger portion of the City’s population. With the number of families living in Watervliet decreasing, the City‘s share of renters and non-resident landlords has increased.
