Unveiling of Historic Markers Underway

ONEONTA—The Greater Oneonta Historical Society, in partnership with the City of Oneonta, is in the process of unveiling six New York State Historical Markers in the City of Oneonta this summer.

In 2024, the William G. Pomeroy Foundation’s New York State Historic Marker Grant Program funded the purchase of five new yellow and blue historical markers in Oneonta for the D&H Train Station (Stella Luna Ristorante); the Oneonta Armory; the Huntington Home (Huntington Memorial Library and Park); Damaschke Field; and the Wilber Mansion (Community Arts Network of Oneonta). With the help of the Future for Oneonta Foundation, GOHS has also individually funded a historical marker for the Oneonta Ford Sales Building. Each of these locations are a testament to Oneonta’s history of innovation, evolution and enduring sense of community, GOHS officials said.
