Moreau, New York
Moreau is a town in Saratoga County, New York, United States. The population was 16,202 at the 2020 census. The town is located in the northeast part of the county, north of Saratoga Springs. Moreau is named after Jean Victor Moreau, a French general, who visited the area just before the town was formed.[citation needed] The town contains a village called South Glens Falls.
The town, although part of the town of Northumberland until 1805, was first settled around 1766 at what is now the village of South Glens Falls.
Ulysses S. Grant, former President and army general, spent the last weeks of his life finishing his memoirs at what is now the Grant Cottage State Historic Site. The cottage on Mount McGregor was surrounded by over 1000 acres of beautiful natural vistas, and was visited by many thousands of Civil War veterans in the years following his death. The locale has had many uses over the decades, and currently the cottage is on the grounds of the former Mount McGregor Correctional Facility.
The Historical Society of Moreau and South Glens Falls is housed in the Parks-Bentley House, added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.
The Royal Blockhouse site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 43.6 square miles (113 km2), of which 42.2 square miles (109 km2) is land and 1.5 square miles (3.9 km2) (3.32%) is water.
The town's entire northern and eastern boundaries are established by the Hudson River. The eastern town line, formed by the river, is the border of Washington County. The northern town line is the border of Warren County.
The Adirondack Northway (Interstate 87) and US Route 9 are north–south highways which pass through the town. New York State Route 32 intersects US-9 at the hamlet of Fernwood, and New York State Route 197 intersects NY-32 at the hamlet of Reynolds Corners.
