Local Resources In and Around Troy
ocated
along the Hudson River, Troy is a city of 55,000 people that is more
than 200 years old. Troy was a major center for the industrial revolution
in the 1800s—birthplace of the detachable shirt collar and home to
stove manufacturers, textile mills, stagecoach and carriage builders, and
more.
Today, Troy is home to The Sage Colleges, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, and Emma Willard. While Emma overlooks the city of Troy up on Mount Ida, students frequently make their way off campus, either on foot, by bus (the #80 bus to downtown Troy stops in front of Emma Willard), by taxi, or with a faculty member.
