Schuyler's Time Capsule
Manage episode 366277779 series 2658736
The rumor that a 98-year-old time capsule was buried beneath the Albany statue of Philip Schuyler is true. City officials took down the statue last week, making good on a 3-year-old promise to do so following calls for the likeness of the former owner of enslaved people to be removed after the death of George Floyd. After Schuyler’s statue was hauled away, officials found a trove of relics beneath its concrete plinth. On this episode of “The Eagle,” Times Union reporter H. Rose Schneider explores what treasures the city says have been unearthed.
