Schenectady NY is located on the Mohawk River 15 minutes west of Albany. Schenectady is known for being the home of General Electric, but the history of this city goes way deeper than that. In this video, we explore the history and geography of Schenectady New York, from its founding by the Dutch in the 1600s to the urban development happening in the present day. Whether you are from Schenectady or just want to learn more, we truly hope that you enjoy this video.
