I was vacationing in the adirondacks this month. I was contemplating the former vacationers of the early 1900's and their leisurely time spent in this part of the state. Yesterday, I went to Lake Lila, which is state land now, but was formerly owned Dr. Seward Webb as a private retreat. Most of the former buildings have been torn down. The only standing building is the old Nehasne Rail Road stop. Since Dr. Webb was in the Railroad business, he could bring his own railroad and create a station close to his summer great camp.
Adirondack Magazine did an article on Lake Lila and included pictures of the current station versus the old one. The pictures just looked wrong to me -- not the same building in the before and after. I have to dig out the issue and do my own comparison to see for myself.
