Albany was named after the Duke of York's Scottish title, "Duke of Albany" in 1664 when the English took control of the area. Prior to being named Albany, the settlement was called Beverwyck ("beaver district") after the animal created a lucrative fur trade for the Dutch. Albany, however, remained Dutch in language and customs until the American Revolution.
Plants and flowers native to Albany include but are not limited to: Winterberry, Sweetfern, Eastern Prickly Pear, Marsh Marigold, and Mayapple.
