Tour the Ruins of Letchworth Village (Thiells, NY) Opened in 1911, Letchworth Village at its peak consisted of over 130 buildings spread out over many acres of land. It was named for William Pryor Letchworth, who espoused reform in the treatment and care of the insane, epileptics, and poor children. In 1996 the institution was permanently closed down, and many of its abandoned structures have since fallen into serious disrepair. (🎥 - Phil Lafaro) https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCeU5ljJ-pKVxJLIwh

🦇 Rarely-seen bat spotted at Letchworth State Park! 🎃 We waited until Halloween weekend to share this video from a Park employee showing an eastern red bat in classic red bat pose, roosting in a low-growing tree on Oct. 4. 🔎 The nature clues that tell us this is a red bat are its reddish color, its very short nose, and its beautiful white armpit hairs. 🌎 Red bats are migratory tree bats. That means that they mostly live alone, travel vast distances to survive winter, and rest in trees rather

Six Years Ago Today: One of the coolest trains to ever pass through Letchworth State Park made the passenger excursion on August 1, 2015. The Nickel Plate 765 steam engine led nostalgic passenger cars, many of them Pullman cars, on a trip from Buffalo to Corning and back each day that weekend. It was the first steam engine to cross the Genesee River there in years on the old 1875 trestle--and the last one. Less than three years later the trestle was gone, the new Genesee Arch Bridge taking its p

❄️Snow can make the falls thunder, just like a rainstorm. 🌊The Genesee River drains rain and snow melt from the foothills of Appalachia in northern PA, flowing north and carving three huge canyons and waterfalls in Letchworth State Park, then another canyon and three more falls in the city of Rochester before its big finish in Lake Ontario. 📍When roads close for winter weather, this view is only accessible through the Castile entrance, 6787 Denton Corners Road, Castile, NY.

👀The face in the falls is out again! Look closely at the rocks in Middle Falls for the profile of a person’s face. Is it Iris, the Greek goddess of rainbows, making her rainbows in the basin below? William Pryor Letchworth, after whom the Park is named, loved Greek mythology. This face can only be seen when the Genesee River discharge around Middle Falls is less than about 220 cubic feet of water per second, which is typical for this time of year. Today, the River discharge around Middle Falls
