Life in Troy

Troy is the county seat of Rensselaer County, New York.  The city was settled as early as 1787 and currently lists its population at about 49,000 people.  Troy is nicknamed "the Collar City" on account of its history of producing shirts, collars, and other types of clothing.

Troy is also famous for its connection with Samuel Wilson, who is thought to be the basis for "Uncle Sam".  Uncle Sam is the personified character of America, and he lived near Riverfront Park in Troy.  A memorial there commemorates his life and inspiration to the country.

Currently, Troy preserves a great deal of Victorian architecture in the Central Troy Historic District.  Another beautiful place to visit is Franklin Plaza, where an elaborately designed ballroom makes formal occasions even more elegant.

Troy is a festive and thriving city.  According to recent statistics, the city has not been affected by economic conditions as much as other areas in the nation.  Some popular events in Troy include the Troy Flag Day Parade, the Uncle Sam Parade, the Troy Turkey Trot, and Troy Night Out.  Residents and visitors alike can catch a glimpse of early American culture simply by being in Troy.

Troy lawyers usually represent their clients at the Troy City Court.  Much like Uncle Sam, lawyers in Troy City, New York exemplify the American ideals of justice and equality.
