Schuyler Flatts

The grounds contain building foundations and artifacts revealing the daily life patterns of different communities along the Hudson River over multiple centuries.

The Schuyler family purchased this land in 1672, establishing a significant farming estate that remained in their possession until the early twentieth century.

Archaeological excavations at the site document the interactions between Native American, European, and African American populations through recovered materials and structures.

Located at 595 Broadway in Menands, the cultural park provides guided tours where visitors can observe ongoing archaeological research and newly discovered items.

The Erie Canal construction in the nineteenth century altered the property layout, leading to the relocation of the river road to its current position as Broadway.
