Albany is one of the oldest continuous settlement in the original 13 English colonies in the United States. A fort was built here prior to 1614. Albany became the official capital of New York in 1797. This video looks especially in and around the State Capitol Complex. The original version has some shaky videos in it. This one has reduced the amount of shakiness. - Travels with Phil copyrighted by Phil Konstantin -
