Corinth is a quaint<br />
little town in Saratoga<br />
County, Upstate New York.<br />
The Hudson River winds<br />
peacefully through Corinth,<br />
making it a favorite vacation<br />
spot for tourists of all seasons<br />
looking for a place that has<br />
swimming, boating, fishing,<br />
waterskiing, beautiful<br />
fall foliage, snow skiing,<br />
snowshoeing, and much more<br />
all centrally located. In the<br />
extreme southwestern corner<br />
of Corinth is the famous<br />
Mount McGregor, where<br />
Gen. Ulysses S. Grant died.<br />
Come enjoy the serenity of<br />
Corinth, and still be only<br />
15 minutes from all the<br />
fast paced attractions and<br />
entertainment offered in<br />
neighboring communities<br />
of Saratoga, Glens Falls, and<br />
Lake George.<br />

Corinth – Celebrating 200 Years<br />
I.P. Museum. This building was the first headquarters of<br />
International Paper Company, Corinth, NY. It later became<br />
the offices for the Mill Managers of Hudson River Mill.<br />
The downstairs became the time office for the then 1500<br />
employees to punch their timeclocks in and out for their<br />
respective shifts and pick up their paychecks.<br />
The downstairs also housed the safety shoe office. This was<br />
where the first office of the Hudson River Credit Union was<br />
formed.<br />
When International Paper Company closed its doors in<br />
2002, the town of Corinth asked to have the building<br />
donated to the Town to serve as a paper-making museum.<br />
After several years this did happen, and the Town has begun<br />
the slow process of making the museum a reality. It hired a<br />
Corinth native, and professor at Daniel <strong>Web</strong>ster University,<br />
as the museum’s curator. The process of getting the site on<br />
the National Historic Roll has happened, and a Board and<br />
Community Advisory Board has transpired. Grants have<br />
been applied for and summer programs have been scheduled<br />
there. Visit IP Museum at<br />
