I'm currently trying to save the Old Stone Barracks in Plattsburgh, NY. The Stone Barracks replaced the log barracks housing troops at the Battle of Plattsburgh in the War of 1812. They have been home to army, navy and air force units until 1995. It represents the first model for permanent barracks built by the U.S. on an important frontier post protecting the Lake Champlain Valley with its long military history since the Revolution through the Cold War. Go to our website, www.OldStoneBarracks.org. The Friends of the Old Stone Barracks is a 501(c)(3) not for profit, tax-exempt corporation dedicated to acquiring and restoring the property to its highest and best public and private use. The Barracks deserves preservation and you can help spread the word.
