Caption: Gateway Plaza, New Location of M7-Day Marker
Additional Description: The Route 5 Transit Gateway Linkage Study had determined prior to November of 2012 that Schenectady's Liberty Park was overgrown, neglected, and suffered from security issues due to the berms in the park, as well as a design which was difficult to maintain. Liberty Park was subsequently redesigned and expanded into Gateway Plaza. During implementation of this plan the seven historic markers in the park were removed, and later, five of the seven were reinstalled. Here we see the M7-Day marker, at lower left in the photo, set beside the edge of the pedestrian walkway, with the familiar former-YMCA building in the background.
