Yet another Stockade neighborhood event was blessed with beautiful weather today (Saturday, September 27), as the 54th Annual Stockade Walkabout opened 10 homes and many of our finest institutional buildings to to a large group of guests, who purchased tickets for a major fundraiser of the Stockade Association and Schenectady County Historical Society. The following Slideshow offers about 50 photos in the order taken as I walked from the Historical Society on Washington Avenue around the lengthy circuit of stops.
