The Greater Watertown area is an ideal place to live and to work. Located in northern New York State, we are proud of our lush farmlands, miles of wa-terfront and acres of forests, quaint villages, a booming commercial cen-ter, and of course, Fort Drum, home to the 10th Mountain Division, one of the most deployed divisions in the Army. Watertown is also close to the Adirondack Park, a six million acre outdoor wonderland and part of the Thousand Islands Region.

Named the "Fastest Growing County in New York State” by New York State Economic Development, Jefferson County is experiencing an unparalleled economic boom as a result of the expansion at Fort Drum, for which the Department of the Army has budgeted $1 billion. Evidence of this growth includes: • The population growing by 5% in the past two years • Housing starts are up 18% • Retail, service and hospitality sectors are growing proportionately • The unemployment rate (county) of 6.8% as of January 2007 It's an exciting time to be here, especially for those living in the county or relocating to the area!

Welcome to Watertown, NY, at the heart of Jefferson County and home to Tug Hill Construction. We hope that this guide will give you a taste of the many possibilities at your fingertips.

Traveling To and From Watertown

Settled in 1800 and incorporated in 1869, Watertown is the Jefferson County seat. At 26,000 residents, it is a small but regionally important city with a strong 19th century architectural flavor. The County also has 20 villages that provide opportunities for small town living, with restaurants, retail shops, and quiet neighborhoods.

Watertown is the commercial hub of Jefferson County, and is home to nationally recognized manufacturing facilities like the "Little Trees" Car Fresheners. There are numer-ous national retailers and restaurant chains here, as well as many quaint shops and boutiques found throughout the county.

The growth at Fort Drum has helped bring di-versity to the area, and is the catalyst of our economic engine. The area has many fine schools, safe neighborhoods in which to raise families, affordable housing for any taste, and a variety of job opportunities. The Watertown Community sup-ports the Fort Drum soldiers and their families with programs like Adopt-a-10th Mountain Platoon and our signature Yellow Ribbon events, and the blend of the mili-tary and civilian communities makes the Greater Watertown Area one of the best places to live in the country.

About Watertown, NY

We also have old fashioned drive-in movie thea-ters, local music festivals, Class IV river rafting and world class kayaking on the Black River, a beautifully modern zoo, local and state parks, downhill and cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, golf, and water, water, everywhere.

The Greater Watertown area has so much to offer, including

hundreds of miles of shoreline, thousands of acres of for-ests, quaint villages and a booming commercial center. Because Jefferson County is in the heart of the 1000 Is-lands Region it has something to offer everyone. Outdoor recreation is our niche. Lake Ontario, one of the largest freshwater lakes in the world, and the St Lawrence River/Seaway, an 800 mile river that connects the Great Lakes to the Atlantic Ocean, serve as the

western and northern boundaries of Jefferson County re-spectively. Those waters, combined with the flat and white-

water of the Black River, the pristine Indian Lakes Region, and scores of streams and ponds provide some of the best fishing, boating and sailing, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, scuba diving and whitewater rafting in the world. Along with all of the warm weather activities, winter brings the snow - which means snowmo-biling, downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, ice fishing, skating, and hunting for those who love the crisp clean air of the win-ter months. The Tug Hill Plateau, known for the lake-effect snows that blow in off Lake Ontario, lies in the southern part of the county. Tug Hill is known for the number of feet -- not inches -- of snow that falls throughout the sea-son, and is the winter sports enthusiast's playground. Museums and historic points of interest abound throughout the county, from the 1812 Battlefield in Sackets Harbor to Boldt Castle and Millionaire's Row in the 1000 Islands. The Antique Boat Museum, the Clayton Opera House, and the Jefferson County His-

torical Society are just a few of the sites open to the public. Jefferson County is the home to Fort Drum and the 10th Mountain Division, one of the Army's most deployed divisions. Expansion at Fort Drum has triggered an economic boom in the area, with new stores, restau-rants and lodging facilities in its wake. A population jump of 6,000 new residents has brought diversity and a sense of excitement to the North Country.

Unparalleled outdoor recreation, world renowned attractions, historic sites, nationally recognized museums, fine restaurants, quaint villages and exciting shopping combine to make the Greater Watertown area a great place to work and to live.

There are also many historical sites to visit for educa-tion and enjoyment.

Recreational & Historical Areas Around Watertown

• The Tug Hill Region • Alexandria Bay • Sackets Harbor • Clayton • The Adirondacks

A few of the areas around Watertown include:

9

Tug Hill Plateau is a remote section of upstate New York located a short drive south of Water-town, between the east end of Lake Ontario and the Adirondack Mountains.

Comprised of the southern Jefferson, eastern Oswego, western Lewis and northern Oneida coun-ties, this area is popular in the winter for snowmobiling and skiing due to its large snowfalls that come off of Lake Ontario, in the spring and summer for its numerous trout streams and back roads used for hiking and moun-tain biking, and its abundance of large and small game make hunting in the area enjoyable in the fall. The area contains many large parcels of state land totaling approximately 27,000 acres which are open to the public for many recreational uses.

The region surrounding the Tug Hill Plateau contains numerous attrac-tions and recreational opportunities nestled in its many small villages and hamlets. You will find antique shops, flea markets, handmade furniture, gifts and crafts, fishing and hunting guide ser-vices, miles of snowmobile trails, restaurants, lodging, bed and breakfasts, campgrounds, boat-ing, canoeing, both down hill and cross-country skiing, pure maple syrup products, numerous roadside produce stands and much more.

To the north Watertown leads into the 1000 Island Region of the St. Law-rence River. Heading east to the Black River valley is the city of Carthage and the village of Lowville. This area is very picturesque with its many dairy farms.

To the south is Oneida Lake, famous for its walleye fishing both in the summer and through the ice, is popular for summer water sports.

To the west, Lake Ontario, from Mexico Bay on the south east corner of the lake to Sackets and Henderson Harbors is renowned for its sport fish-ing including salmon, trout, bass and walleye along with numerous pan-fish. The Fort at Sackets Harbor is a famous reminder of the War of 1812. The salmon and steelhead runs in the Salmon River flowing through Pu-laski and Altmar are world famous and draw fisherman from around the

world. There is abundant lodging and restaurants along the lake as well as state and private campgrounds, boat launches and marinas.

The eastern portion of the region is bounded by the Black River Valley south to Boonville. The River has numerous public launch areas and contains good populations of bass, walleye, northern pike and panfish. Many portions of the river con-tain slow meandering lazy water and make for enjoyable canoeing. The remnants of the old Erie Canal systems still are present when traveling through this area. East of the Valley leads into the foothills of the Adiron-dacks. South of Boonville lies the City of Rome, an important point before the Erie Canal when the boats were brought up the Mohawk River from the Hudson River and transferred to Wood Creek to allow travel through Oneida Lake to the Great Lakes. Fort Stanwix, which remains today, was located at this spot to protect this important transfer point.

The waters guide you to a place of year-round beauty and a sportsman’s paradise. Of the 1,860 islands that dot the St. Lawrence River and comprise the 1000 Islands Region, many of the most amazing can be found in and sur-rounding Alexandria Bay. Nestled on Heart Island (the island is so named for its heart shape) is the legendary Boldt Castle. Boldt Castle was built by a hus-band for his wife in the late 1800’s and has a romantic yet tragic story. Just a short 10 miles upriver, Singer Castle, also built in the late 1800’s, is where mystery and beauty meet the river. In between the two castles is Millionaire’s Row whose island homes reflect the opulence and individuality of an era gone by. Guided by two lighthouses, the seaway is active with trade in the early April to late December season as is shown by the large tankers that ma-jestically travel past the bay.

Alexandria Bay

Alexandria Bay has become the true family vacation destination offering something for every member of the family. Two boat tour companies offer shuttles to Boldt Castle and extended touring including lunch and dinner cruises. There are limited tours to Casablanca on Cherry Island and tours of Singer Castle. For those roman-

tics planning a wedding, Boldt Castle and Singer Castle offer settings for beautiful is-land weddings, as do many mainland loca-tions.

The St. Lawrence River offers world class fishing, as recent national publication noting Alexandria Bay as one of the top 10 fishing locations in the U.S., dishing up offerings of Northern Pike and Walleye in May, and Black bass from late June to November. The time to catch the mighty Muskie is from July to December, but don’t forget ice fishing in the

winter months. Alexandria Bay has become a golfer’s paradise with 32 courses in the 1000 Islands Region, with 8 courses within 15 miles of the Bay. The varied depths and clear waters, as well as a rich history of water commerce have drawn thousands to the area to enjoy scuba diving. Boaters find miles and miles of scenic boating along the St. Lawrence.

Sackets Harbor

A charming community nestled on the shores of Lake Ontario and the beautiful Black River Bay, this village offers the Sack-ets Harbor Battlefield State Historic Site (which played an historic part in the War of 1812), Madison Barracks, the Seaway Trail Discovery Center, Lake Ontario Playhouse, concerts on the waterfront, Old McDonald’s Farm, shopping in a variety of specialty stores along West Main Street, excellent din-ing in local restaurants (indoors and out), nearby Westcott Beach State Park, and so much more...

Clayton The Clayton area is known as the cultural center of the 1000 Islands, boasting three museums, a waterfront concert series every summer, and seasonal theater in the village's turn-of-the-century opera house. The Antique Boat Museum, “America’s freshwater boating museum…the finest collection of antique boats in the world,” according to Joseph Gribbins of Nautical Quarterly Magazine. This Mary Street Museum houses the largest collection of freshwater antique boats and engines in the nation. Visitors can stroll amidst the Museum’s priceless collection of over 200 boats. If you have a little more time, why not enjoy a speedboat ride and enjoy a first hand look in yesteryear’s fast lane, or take up the oars yourself in a wooden skiff and explore the shoreline of Clayton. The Antique Boat Museum hosts a number of activities throughout the summer, including the oldest antique boat show and auction in the country that draws exhibitors and visi-tors from around the world. The museum also offers boat building classes for adults and entertaining educa-tional programs for children. Before you leave make sure you check out the exciting new gift shop “River Memories” and pick up a keepsake for your own river memories.

The Handweaving Museum and Arts Center, located in a historic village building on John Street, brings the visual arts alive in the 1000 Islands through art instruction and exhibits. The Arts Center also offers fun and exciting classes for all ages throughout the year. Learn to draw, paint, build rustic furniture, or work with clay during one of their dozens of art and craft classes. Tour their gallery of ever changing exhibits such as “Along The River’s Edge” that showcases the work of area artists or pieces from the museum’s permanent collection of hand-woven textiles and rare spinning and weaving tools. Visit their gift shop featuring the work of area artisans, books, and craft kits. The Handweaving Museum hosts special events throughout the year including the Antique Show & Sale, Annual Craft Show, as well as Elderhostel programs. Just around the corner on James Street is the Thousand Islands Museum. The TI Museum is famous for de-coys, muskies and the rich heritage of river life. The Museum gallery offers a history of life along the St. Lawrence River from yesteryear and a new archival library is open to the public to research river heritage. You can also learn more about Clayton’s colorful past at the popular “History at Noon” programs. In the “Yesterday’s Memories” Gift Shop make sure to check out the St. Lawrence Tartan, the museum’s trade-

mark. The greens represent the cedars along the shore, the blues are the shades of the St. Lawrence River, and the red signifies the sunset over the is-lands. Also in the gift shop you will find a broad selection of gifts and souvenirs. Annually the Museum hosts the Decoy & Wildlife Art Show & Auction. The show includes hunting decoy contests as well as an auction. Works of art by well-known artists from all of the United States and Canada are displayed for pur-chase. The Clayton Opera House located on Riv-erside Drive was once the center of vil-lage cultural life, and host to famous en-tertainers from around the world. Today, volunteers are returning the building to

its former glory, and visitors can once again enjoy seasonal performances including plays and variety shows in this magnificent structure. The natural beauty of the St. Lawrence River has inspired artists for centuries, so its no wonder that Clayton is home to a number of galleries. Visit the Winged Bull Studio or the St. Law-rence River Art Gallery. Corbin’s River Heritage Shop houses a huge collection of historical photographs and books of the 1000 Islands. Whether your taste runs to watercolor paintings or period photographs, you’re certain to find something you’ll love. Summer sunsets provide a breathtaking backdrop for Clayton’s Waterfront concerts at Frink Park on River-side Drive any Thursday night in summer. Jazz, brass ensembles, military, country, and contemporary mu-sic are features at these popular evening events. There may be a tall ship or navy vessel docked right there as ships travel to Clayton throughout the summer.
