Glens Falls Armory up for auction, again

(03/05/10) The Glens Falls Armory goes back on the auction block next month. The 115-year-old stone building--complete with turret--has been up for auction twice since the National Guard moved to new quarters last summer.

The state's Office of General Services owns the Armory and has lowered the minimum bid for the building. No one entered a bid at 500,000 dollars in October or 350,000 during the second auction. Now, department spokesperson Heather Groll tells Jonathan Brown that bidding will start at 200,000 dollars.
