complete on a more than $2 million project to refurbish the New York-owned
Champlain Memorial Lighthouse in time to commemorate the 400th anniversary of
Samuel de Champlain’s exploration of the region.
Archaeologists are
wrapping up the first half of a two-week excavation at an upstate New York historic site that was considered one of the most

America.
