When you look at a brick building, you probably don’t think of a giant glacial lake that existed over 10,000 years ago…but after watching this video, you will.
Did you know that at the end of the last ice age, there were several large glacial lakes in New York filled with melt water? One of those lakes is called Lake Albany, which eventually flooded out into the ocean and became the Hudson River. The Hudson Valley is rich in history, both geologic and human, and in this story you’ll see one of the many ways they intertwine.
Thank you very much to Rachel Whitlow, Executive Director at Haverstraw Brick Museum, and Dana Dalton from Hutton Brickyards for your time and support in creating this video!
