Book Synopsis Cohoes Revisited by : The Spindle City Historic Society
Download or read book Cohoes Revisited written by The Spindle City Historic Society. This book was released on 2006-02. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cohoes Revisited continues the pictorial history begun in Cohoes, the Spindle City Historic Society's first book. It offers a second view of the city and its residents from the 19th century forward, honoring the rich heritage of this place near the confluence of the Hudson and Mohawk Rivers, which was transformed from a farming village to a center of commerce by the construction of the Erie Canal. The Cohoes Falls, the largest cataract east of Niagara, made Cohoes an industrial hub. Massive mill buildings, including one of the largest cotton mills in the world, were erected by the riverfront and along a network of power canals. To the mills came thousands of workers, a diverse group of immigrants who have given Cohoes its distinctive character.

Book Synopsis Cohoes by : Spindle City Historic Society
Download or read book Cohoes written by Spindle City Historic Society. This book was released on 2014. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cohoes has long held an attraction for visitors, with reports from European travelers at the Cohoes Falls dating to the 17th century. The Cohoes Falls were a favored destination for writers and romantics, daredevils and diplomats. The textile mills in Cohoes, powered by water from the Mohawk River and an innovative power canal system, would draw immigrant mill workers, industrialists, and engineers. Cohoes was a crossroads for travelers because of its thriving industries, natural wonders, and strategic location along major transportation networks--the Hudson and Mohawk Rivers, the Erie and Champlain Canals, railroads, and highways. Those arriving in Cohoes came from all walks of life and many places. In this book, historic postcards take readers on a tour of the sites of Cohoes, including downtown, the mill district, the island, and the hill.
