Colonie Seniors to Visit the Stephen and Harriet Myers Residence
December 13, 2022 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm
Colonie, NY seniors will visit The Stephen and Harriet Myers Residence for a tour experience. The Myers Residence is an outstanding artifact of the Anti-slavery and Underground Railroad period.
The Stephen and Harriet Myers Residence, located at 194 Livingston Avenue in Albany, New York reflects Underground Railroad history from the perspective of Stephen Myers as a man enslaved in NYS and from the perspective of Black abolitionists. Stephen and Harriet Myers, who lived in this building in the mid-1850’s, were the central Underground Railroad activists in the Capital Region.
A rich treasure in our backyards.
