Listing by Anthony Durante• Armida Rose Realty Group
Seward Place, located between Union Street and State Street, is a residential and historic Schenectady neighborhood with tree-lined blocks and early-20th-century architecture. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Union Street corridor near Nott Terrace, where corner storefronts and a steady sidewalk rhythm set the tone. Brick colonials and compact apartment buildings sit beside tidy porches, giving the streetscape a composed, lived-in feel. Union College’s campus edges the area with collegiate greens and stone academic buildings. For culture, Proctors anchors downtown programming, while Arthur’s Market and Perecca’s Bakery serve as long-running local touchstones.
