    building the high-tech future By Charles A. Gargano early two centuries ago in New York state, the Erie Canal – from n Albany to Buffalo – opened a gateway to the west. Today in New York state, Centers of Excellence – from Albany to Buffalo and beyond – are opening a gateway to the high-technology future. The Erie Canal required men, horses, equipment, and a plan. The Centers of Excellence have required far more, including a vision for high-technology clusters, building new partnerships among universi- ties, government and businesses; and the ability to attract billions of dollars in investments to create jobs and foster growth.

  • Then & Now: Albany, the South Mall and a Neighborhood Lost
    Then & Now: Albany, the South Mall and a Neighborhood Lost City Engineer, Public Works Negatives, 1930-1949. From the Archival Collection of the Albany County Hall of Records. The Princess and “The Gut” 89-01830. Private Donor. Netherlands Royal Family Visit to Albany Photo Collection. Princess Beatrix of the Netherlands, Governor Nelson Rockefeller and Mayor Erastus Corning, September, 1959. “The South Mall will be the greatest single governmental office complex history has ever known.” – Mayor Erastus Corning 2nd In September of 1959, Princess Beatrix of the Netherlands came to Albany, New York to commemorate the 350th anniversary of Henry Hudson’s exploratory voyage on the Hudson River at the Hudson-Champlain Celebration. While giving the young royal a tour of downtown Albany, Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller felt embarrassed by the deteriorating South End neighborhood referred to by some as “The Gut,” an area of many dilapidated buildings and vacant structures. Albany Mayor Erastus Corning 2nd told the Knickerbocker News in 1979 that: “Rockefeller thought [the] buildings the Princess and those with her saw were not as good-looking or appropriate for a capital city as he thought they should be.” In an attempt to revitalize Albany and transform it into a city outsiders would deem worthy of being New York’s capital, Rockefeller proposed the construction of a large, modern governmental complex. In order to create this lavish site he envisioned, Rockefeller seized 98.5 acres of land in Albany’s South End through eminent domain in 1962 and demolition soon began. As a result, thousands of families and business owners lost their properties and were forced to relocate.

  • A Global Tech Leader Rises in Upstate New York
    BFOct10_CoverStory_GF.vs5 10/14/10 3:11 PM Page 1 COVER STORY By Jack Rogers A GLOBAL TECH LEADER RISES IN UPSTATE NEW YORK GlobalFoundries’ Fab 8 in Malta will be the most advanced semiconductor manufacturing facility in the world, producing microchips with components as small as 22 nanometers. he autumn leaves are in the midst of their annual burst of color, but changing foliage isn’t the most spectacular development in Upstate New York this year. That honor belongs to GlobalFoundries’ Fab 8 project. Taking shape on the 1,414-acre Luther Forest Technology Campus in scenic Saratoga County is the world’s most advancedT semiconductor manufacturing facility. At the heart of this $4.2-billion project in Malta, NY stands the emerging shell of a 300,000-square- foot cleanroom that soon will begin churning out 300-mm wide semiconductor wafers with microchip circuits as small as 28 nanometers (28nm). Shortly after manufacturing commences in mid-2012 at Glob- alFoundries (GF), the microchip plant will take a great leap forward and become the world’s first facility to produce 300-mm microchips with components as small as 22 nanometers. For those of us who wouldn’t know a nanometer from a thermometer, here are some mind-bog- gling numbers: a nanometer is one-billionth of a meter; a water molecule is one nanometer, a germ is about 1,000 nanometers; a human hair is 100,000-nm thick. If you want to view a 22-nm com- ponent on a microchip, you’ll have to swap your reading glasses for a powerful atomic micro- scope.
