Mid-Atlantic - New York

Adirondacks Museum

A Karen Brown Recommendation

The Adirondacks Museum, a compound of buildings, galleries, and exhibit halls, is thought of as the Smithsonian Museum of the Adirondacks. It is unfortunately open only from Memorial Day to mid-October but it is well worth a visit to see the boat museum, homes built in the finest Adirondack style of architecture, the 1907 schoolhouse, exhibits on logging and mining, and the art museum. The Road and Transportation Building is especially impressive with its 45,000 square feet of exhibit space displaying sleighs, buggies, wagons, and a private Pullman car. Outside, you can tour a 1900 steam engine and passenger car. (518-352-7311).
