Two floors of furnished rooms convey the life of an active 19th century urban household, that included numerous children and servants. Changing exhibition galleries in an adjacent townhouse explore various aspects of life in Rensselaer County.

Current exhibitions include the changing landscape of the county and early printers of Troy and Lansingburgh.
