In 1910 Earl Keith and Robert Branch formed a partnership, purchasing a large general store built soon after the Civil War by Ashley Prime, an establishment where Branch had previously worked. Expanding their business, they secured a Ford franchise four years later and in 1915 opened the Central Garage for automobile service. After World War I they erected this three-story building across the street for the finial assembly and sale of Fords. Their merchandise was shipped by rail to Au Sable Forks, where youth were hired to drive the vehicles, still without their bodies, to Upper Jay. The practice of completing assembly off-site was apparently a common cost-saving measure for the Ford Motor Company. The substantial farming population nearby made the hamlet a strategic location for the enterprise, in spite of its lack of a direct rail connection. The business continued at least until the mid-1940s. From a technical perspective the building was crude for the functions it contained, with heavy timber framing and a non-motorized freight elevator. A very rare survivor of its kind, it is now the Upper Jay Art Center and Recovery Lounge. Though closed in the late 1960s, the general store survived until it burned in 1994.

Situated on a wooded peninsula, facing a cove, this low-key building served as the instructional headquarters of a famous diva from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Born in Poland, Sembrich debuted at the Metropolitan Opera on the second night of its inaugural performance in 1883. She returned to Europe, but also appeared regularly at the Met. Moving to the United States in 1897 she directed the vocal departments at the Julliard School of Music and at Philadelphia's Curtis Institute. Beginning in 1915 summers were spent teaching at Lake Placid. In 1922 she rented Bay View, a lavish Gilded Age pile, which she purchased at the end of the season and soon remodeled. After World War II, ten acres of the property was sold, some of it to Earl Woodward, the principal developer of Lake Vanare, for two cabin groups. The remaining land was deeded to the newly formed Marcella Sembrich Memorial Association, which maintains the studio as a museum.

If Pine Knot was Durant's grand experiment, Sagamore was the culmination of his camp-building career, bringing the chalet idiom to a crescendo. In its mass and siting, the lodge approaches being a civic statement, like a monument to a wilderness conquest. This great wall of spruce slab log sheathing (the building's length is too great for log construction) belies the fact that the lodge is far wider than it is deep and has no great spaces within. Flanking the drive at right angles is the dining hall and kitchen that is as understated as the lodge is imposing. Durant also built a large service complex to the west that included a barn, blacksmith shop, hen house, wood and tool sheds, vegetable cellar, and carriage shed. <\/p>
Durant occupied Sagamore briefly; whether he had hoped to be its long-term resident is unclear. Whatever his intentions, he was forced to sell it in 1901 due to his increasingly precarious financial situation. The new owner, Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt, added to the dining hall; and commissioned a casino designed by William L. Coulter; as well as a guest cottage, Lakeside, and a \u201cbachelor's hall\u201d \u2013 all around 1902. Vanderbilt apparently spent little time there from 1903 until he married Margaret Emerson McKim in 1911. Thereafter, a new building campaign was launched, which included another guest cottage, Wigwam; a bowling alley (both 1914); the \u201cmen's camp\u201d in the service complex, as well as a laundry building (both 1914-15); carpenter's shop; and hydroelectric plant (both 1915). Vanderbilt died with the sinking of the Lusitania four years later. His widow (re-married 1918; divorced 1928) continued to occupy Sagamore into the mid-20th century, entertaining extensively. She undertook numerous projects, including two additions to the dining hall (1924, ca. 1927), enlargements to Lakeside (ca. 1925, ca. 1940), and additional cottages for two of her children (ca. 1938). <\/p>
In 1954 the property was given to Syracuse University for use as a conference center. The pending sale of the property in 1975 became a cause c\u00e9l\u00e8bre for those concerned with the future of grand Adirondack camps. <\/p>
The state's Department of Environmental Conservation was the only bidder, prompting fears that the camp would be lost under the forever-wild provisions of the state constitution once the transfer occurred and the estate incorporated into the Forest Preserve. The newly formed Preservation League of New York State worked with the DEC to find an outside party to buy the 7.5-acre area in which most of the buildings lay. That initiative succeeded with acquisition by the National Humanistic Education Center (now Sagamore Institute of the Adirondacks). However, the service complex was omitted from the sale and was imminently threatened with destruction. Sagamore and the Preservation League formed a coalition in 1983 to secure a swap of 200 acres of wild land for the ten acres occupied by the complex, necessitating an amendment to the state constitution in the process. Both episodes served as a launching pad for activist preservation in the Adirondacks.

Now preserved as a museum and meeting center, as well as for occasional religious services, Beth Joseph was the first purpose-built synagogue constructed in the Adirondacks. Both Jewish and Christian residents of Tupper Lake donated funds for its construction. Some of the wealthy Jewish camp owners on the Saranacs and other lakes contributed as well. The design includes an elementary iteration of Romanesque elements common to urban synagogues a half-century earlier, here updated with a few classical details. As a wooden building (with the interior sheathed in tongue-and-groove siding then popular in the Adirondacks), the synagogue is an unusual surviving example of its type in a predominantly rural area.

The oldest summer training program for singers in United States was established in 1915 by Oscar Seagle, an internationally known baritone, in Hague. Seagle then taught at Brown Swan Club and purchased two Charley Hill farms in 1922. The 19th-century barn on one property was enlarged as an auditorium for teaching and concerts and sheathed in a fanciful half-timber mode inspired by cottages Seagle and his wife admired in England. The school was continued by family members following Seagle's death in 1946, and additional enlargements were made to the main building soon thereafter. Much of that building had to be reconstructed in 1950-51 after structural failure during a heavy snowstorm.

Outside of that at North Creek , this is the Delaware and Hudson's oldest station in the Adirondacks, although much of its appearance dates to additions and alterations made in 1891. The freight house was extended in 1908. The building was sold to the town in 1974, with Amtrak given a long-term lease. It has since been restored on the exterior, with the freight house imaginatively adapted as the Depot Theater. Like the station at Port Henry it also continues to serve train passengers. Though considerably altered, the nearby Westport Hotel at 6601 N. Main Street, was built concurrently with the station to serve its trade (guest rooms did not open until 1879). Originally named the Gates House, it has been continuously operated ever since.

C. I. Thomson and his son, Ray, owners of the Forge House hotel, expanded their operations with an \u201copera house\u201d flanked by stores and with offices above. The influx of summer visitors no doubt justified constructing one of the few such facilities in the Adirondacks. Faced with the loss of their hotel to fire in 1924, and without adequate insurance coverage, the Thomsons sold the still new theater building to Walter D. Marks and A. J. Sardino of Syracuse, who undertook some interior remodeling and added dressing rooms for the performers in road shows and vaudeville acts whose programs were billed along with first-run movies. A decade later Marks added some Art Deco embellishments, including the marquee and entry doors, and changed the name to the Strand. Since 1992 the theater has been under new ownership, its fabric carefully maintained. Additional screens were added in 2000.

The majority of the museum's extensive collections are housed in mid-1950s and 1960s buildings designed by a New York-based civil engineer, Walter Binger. The recent visitor center (1999-2000), designed by the Boston firm of Ann Beha Architect, forms a suitably impressive portal to the compound and an effective buffer to the car lot and parking deck. The museum grounds harbor a spectrum of 19th- and 20th-century structures \u2013 some original to the site, others moved there \u2013 that embody examples of building in the region no longer found elsewhere or seldom seen by the public. A few interesting structures have been designed recently for the museum to serve as outdoor demonstration facilities. <\/p>
Among buildings originally located on the site, arguably the most important is the Log Hotel, erected for Tyler Merwin in 1876 as an annex to his Blue Mountain House and restored by the museum after it acquired the property in 1954. It affords a good sense of the pioneer hotels otherwise known only through old photographs. Adjacent is the Artist's Cottage, constructed around 1905 for painter Gustav Adolf Wiegand, who from about 1900 through the 1920s was available to hotel guests who wanted instruction. Below the hotel is the rustic gazebo, a 1988 replication of the late 19th-century structure on the site. On the hillside to the north lies Bull Cottage, built on the grounds for a minister, Clarence Bull, around 1899-1900, with large stone chimneys, split logs that retain their bark, and diamond-pane windows, all common features of rustic architecture in the region at the turn of the 20th century. It was purchased by the museum in 1981. Directly above, the Moodie Cottage (ca. 1906), another residence built on the hotel grounds, is not yet publicly accessible. <\/p>
Sunset Cottage, a small, sheltered retreat sheathed in dazzling patterns of stickwork, was built in the 1880s as part of Camp Cedars, Frederick Clark Durant's camp at Forked Lake. Severely damaged by a blow-down in 1950, all but this small structure at the camp was demolished. Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney moved it to his Camp Deerlands thereafter. His widow, Mary Lou Whitney, donated it to the museum in 1995. Nearby, the Reising Schoolhouse (1905) was built in a remote part of the Town of Ohio and operated until 1945. It was donated to the museum in 1987. Below, the Buck Lake Club is of recent vintage, constructed in the 1960s by Mike Virkler as a hunting camp on Buck Pond in the Town of Webb. It was given to the museum after the state acquired the leased land on which it stood in 1985. Behind the visitor center is a fire tower (1919) of a standardized design, but unusually low owing to the absence of vegetation atop its original site on Whiteface Mountain. It was the first structure relocated to the museum grounds, in 1971. <\/p>
To the east of Bull Cottage is the Environmental Pavilion (1988), a play on a polygonal gazebo, here greatly enlarged in scale as well as in dimensions to accommodate school groups and other visitors. The architect, Thomas Chapin of Cambridge, New York, and a former employee of William G. Distin's successor firm, Wareham, De Lair, also designed the Marion River Carry Pavilion (1991), a muscular assemblage of log posts and trusses with iron chains as ties that shelters boats and boat-building demonstrations. Across the pond is a lean-to (1992), built by Tom Andrews as an exemplary illustration of structures common to camps of all sizes and a quintessential emblem of the Adirondacks. <\/p>
The museum has never had a long-range plan for the acquisition of historic structures or for the replication of others. Those that have been moved to the site were determined on a case-by-case basis. Aside from the hotel annex and Wiegand's cabin, including historic structures was not part of the initial scheme. The limitations imposed by the property's size and terrain precluded siting these moved structures in a way suggestive of their original environments.

When the Whallonsburgh Grange (formed in 1903) lost its quarters to fire, a new, purpose-built facility was constructed. Perhaps not surprisingly, its form alludes to barns of the period. As was common to these facilities, the upstairs was a large, open space for meetings, dances, wedding receptions, recreational pursuits, dinners, and other collective activities that made the Grange a multi-faceted community center. The building was moved a short distance in 1933 to allow for highway construction. After a period of declining use, ownership was transferred to the Town of Essex in 2006. Two years later, the Whallonsburg Civic Association leased the premises for an event center, bringing back some its historical role as a locus of community engagement.

Little is known about this three-story, wood-frame building, which appears to have been built in two stages. The projecting storefronts and second-story porch suggest an addition from around the turn of the 20th century, the porches to accommodate TB patients.

This facility is the larger of two conceived to help inform visitors of the Park's ecological importance as well as the appeal of its natural features. Among those targeted were people not planning hiking or canoe trips and school children. In this respect the building is a portal to the center's 3,000-acre tract of wild lands, which are accessed by twenty-five miles of trails. The building has moments of graceful elegance in its use of finely detailed wood and glass as responsive counterpoints to the environs. The center lies on land leased from Paul Smith's, and when this state facility was threatened with closure for budgetary reasons, the college took over the operation in 2011, supplementing its own conservation programs and adding public events.

The Palace Theater has been meticulously maintained for nearly ninety years. \nBuilt for the Adirondack Theater Corporation, it was the second largest in the region, seating 1,000 people, surpassed only by the Pontiac in Saranac Lake. Reginald Clark, its owner since 1960, deftly kept the main part of the auditorium intact, while converting the balcony into smaller venues for motion picture exhibition. The organ is still used, reportedly the last Robert Morgan Orchestral Organ that remains operating in its original place.
