Things to do in Albany

Albany has been the capital of New York since 1797, and state government still shapes its economy and its skyline, from the grand State Capitol to the modernist towers of the Empire State Plaza. Around it the Capital Region has built a strong base in higher education, health care and technology, with the University at Albany, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, Albany Medical Center and a semiconductor industry anchored by the GlobalFoundries plant in Malta. Lobbyists, lawyers, researchers and engineers keep the city busy when the legislature is in session and well beyond.
