Today we honor five Glendale Home residents who have witnessed incredible changes over the past century – advancements in technology, societal shifts, and historic moments that are read about in textbooks,” said Gary Hughes, Chair of the Schenectady County Legislature. “We not only recognize their incredible longevity but also the rich lives they have led, full of contributions to their families and communities.”

Schenectady County’s Glendale Home was built ten years ago with the vision of providing a place for community members to age where they spent their lives living, working, and raising families.
