  • Schenectady DRI Application Was Held on May 23, 2019
    REDC Region Capital Region Municipality Name City of Schenectady Downtown Name Downtown Schenectady County Name Schenectady Applicant Contact Schenectady Metroplex Ray Gillen, Chairman Email [email protected] Secondary Contact Jayme Lahut, Executive Director Contact Email [email protected] Schenectady is ready for the DRI. Our community works together to get results. In 2004, Schenectady was fading after the loss of 40,000 industrial jobs. Our downtown was arguably the most distressed in New York State. The fiscal situation was perilous. Today, fifteen years later, we have learned how to work together to produce impressive results. Our unified approach to economic development has resulted in new investments and new jobs that have turned around the city’s fortunes. From worst to first we like to say. We went from a negative financial outlook to solid bond ratings and four straight tax cuts. From an empty downtown to an urban center that is filled with jobs and life again. From a dead zone where a 60-acre abandoned factory site sat dormant for 50 years to a vibrant waterfront destination that is now the most visited place in the Capital Region. The vision for DRI Schenectady is to tie together our rebounding downtown with our new waterfront creating a dynamic 24/7 destination for businesses and visitors. We look forward to working with the Capital Regional Development Council to make this vision a reality. DRI planning and implementation resources are very much needed to complete the redevelopment of downtown Schenectady. A DRI investment will put our community on a firm, solid path toward a diversified economy with a strong 24/7 downtown.

  • Building Stones of Schenectady, New York
    BUILDING STONES OF SCHENECTADY, NEW YORK JANET B. HOLLOCHER 2208 Barcelona Rd. Schenectady, NY 12309 KURT HOLLOCHER Geology Department Union College Schenectady, NY 12308 Introduction The building stones of downtown Schenectady contain some of the best examples of rock types and medium- and small-scale geologic features that the general public can readily view. Within easy walking or driving distance are high-quality rocks of many types, some of them carefully polished and beautifully displayed. There are buildings made with igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks that include oxide­ rich gabbro, porphyritic granite, crossbedded sandstone, fossiliferous limestone, marble, gneiss, and partially melted migmatite. During this half-day trip, we will tour the downtown area to view the most interesting building stones, to see what minerals, fossils and other features they contain, to infer the geologic processes that formed them. The aim of this trip is to help people to learn more about geology, just by spending a few hours in downtown Schenectady (Figure 1). Anyone who is interested in geology can observe rock types and features on his own, without a guide, and without traveling miles on rural roads, bushwacking through woods and swamps, or stopping next to busy highways. Those who examine urban building stones can sharpen their powers of observation and learn to recognize a wide variety of rock types, minerals, features, and fossils. BRING HAND LENSES! Each block of building stone, or each panel of facing stone, is one small window into the past. However, there are some important things to remember when looking at building stones. First, remember that all of the rocks you are looking at came from somewhere else.

No community in NYS was hit harder by the loss of jobs as a percent of total population. The core area of downtown was literally vacant and hollowed out by 2004 as a result of this massive job loss. A concerted, focused revitalization effort has been in place since 2004 resulting from a strong partnership between the City, County and the Metroplex Development Authority.

    SCHENECTADY COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE OUR COLLEGE – OUR FUTURE – The Strategic Plan to 2020 President’s Report December 2020 Expand Access and Increase Student Success The Office of Academic Affairs reports that as a part of the Strong Start to Finish (SSTF) grant, Instructor Cayla Gaworecki and Interim Dean Kelly Majuri attended the SUNY Placement Meeting on November 19. This recurring professional meeting has become a source of research, information, and networking as the Math Committee continues to reinforce our placement process as it relates to our new mathematics flow chart and our commitment to more immediate access to gateway mathematics courses for all of our students. CSTEP & LSAMP Director, Dr. Lorena Harris, and the CSTEP students sent out “Notes of Optimism” along with surprise gift bags to boost the morale of students in need during these difficult times. Interim Dean Eileen Abrahams and Division Secretary Elisabeth Gundlach called and emailed Fall 2020 students who had not yet registered for Spring 2021 classes. Overall, students appreciated the reminder and the personal phone calls. Interim Dean Eileen Abrahams produced two volumes of a new, campus-wide bulletin called The Lowdown, designed to inform adjunct and full-time faculty of upcoming events and deadlines. It will occasionally include relevant narrative, but its primary purpose is to keep faculty informed and up-to- date about issues such as ongoing registration efforts, final exam schedules, and Blackboard preparedness.
