TrailTripTip: To find site of missing monument NY22, drive onto Northern Boulevard (right turn out of parking lot)and immediately take first left turn (after Memorial Hospital). Drive down hill to Broadway and turn right. Follow Broadway through Albany to bridge ramp to City of Rensselaer (Route 9 east). Monument would have been in this location.
