Sit back tonight for virtual tour of Old Plattsburgh Barracks Oval
As reported in the Press Republican
PLATTSBURGH — Clinton County Historical Association Director Helen Allen Nerska will take guests on a tour around the Old Plattsburgh Barracks Oval — and they won’t even need to leave their chairs.
The virtual tour is set for 6:30 p.m. Monday, March 25, at Lake Forest Senior Living Community, 8 Lake Forest Drive.
“Most buildings on the Oval were built around the turn of the 20th century and remain as impressive reminders of our historic past, both military and civilian,” a press release said. “Bands played, troops marched and dignitaries visited, including U.S. presidents.”
Selections from the CCHA’s massive photo collection will be the focal point of the virtual tour along with stories of many of the Oval’s prominent buildings.
The event is a collaboration between the Lake Forest and the Historical Association and is free and open to the public.
