Corinth – Still Celebrating 200 Years<br />
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 />
I.P. Museum. This building was the first headquarters<br />
of International Paper Company, Corinth, NY. It later<br />
became the offices for the Mill Managers of Hudson<br />
River Mill. The downstairs became the time office for<br />
the then 1500 employees to punch their timeclocks<br />
in and out for their respective shifts and pick up their<br />
paychecks.<br />
When International Paper Company closed its<br />
doors in 2002, the town of Corinth asked to have<br />
the building donated to the Town to serve as a papermaking<br />
museum. After several years this did happen,<br />
and the Town has begun the slow process of making<br />
the museum a reality on the National Historic Roll.<br />
Summer programs have been scheduled there.<br />
