The Winslow–Turner Carriage House was a historic carriage house located at Plattsburgh in Clinton County, New York. It was built about 1876 and was a 2-story rectangular building on a stone foundation with a 1+1⁄2-story north wing. The residence it was associated with was demolished in 1977. The carriage house itself was allowed to fall into extreme disrepair and was torn down by its owner in 2020. It had been listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

WIRY (AM)

WIRY is an AM radio station licensed to Plattsburgh, New York. The locally owned and operated radio station broadcasts at 1340 kHz in C-QUAM AM stereo into a Valcom whip antenna (one of the only stations to do so) with a full service variety format. WIRY is primarily music-formatted, featuring an eclectic variety of formats. The station describes its format as a mix of adult contemporary, country music, and oldies. WIRY is mostly locally operated. The station has a live local morning show and an extensive local news and sports bureau, carrying the Plattsburgh Cardinals hockey team in winter months and high school sports. The station also has several creative advertising programs, including a listing of lunch menus from advertisers and a radio help-wanted show titled "Who's Hiring." Weather forecasts are taken from public domain National Weather Service reports. The station serves as an affiliate for the New York Yankees, New York Giants, Westwood One, The Beatle Years with Bob Malik, When Radio Was and The Country Music Greats Radio Show. In addition, the station also streams on the Internet. It has streamed continuously since prior to 2002 and survived the Internet radio bust that forced many stations to stop streaming at that time. WIRY began leasing FM radio station WPLB in 2016; the rechristened WIRY-FM would mostly simulcast the AM side, with syndicated music programs likely to air in place of sports (Bill Santa, WIRY's owner, stated that major sports teams prefer AM radio affiliates). WIRY ended the FM simulcast in 2020. In September 2019, a coalition led by the station's news director Dave Andrews along with Clinton County businessmen and politicians was revealed to be in negotiations to purchase WIRY from Bill Santa. The station's full-service format is not expected to change. The purchase by Hometown Communications, LLC, at a price of $287,500, was consummated on December 27, 2019.

Ronald B. Stafford Ice Arena

The Ronald B. Stafford Ice Arena is a 1,924-seat indoor arena; part of the Plattsburgh State Fieldhouse. It is commonly known as "Cardinal Country." The arena was officially changed to its current namesake in 1987 to honor longtime New York State Senator Ronald. B. Stafford, who retired in 2002 after more than 30 years of public service and support of the College and the North Country. The facility underwent a $2.1 million construction project in Summer 2008 to install 1,517 theatre-style seats and 407 standing-rail positions, move the penalty box and scorer's table opposite the team benches, improve spectators’ navigation throughout the building, expand the pressbox, mount two new light-emitting diode (LED) scoreboards and add hard-wired and wireless Internet connections. The previous year, inefficient light bulbs were replaced with halogen-light fixtures and the walls were painted. The ice surface is 185 feetx85 feet, surrounded by new professional-height, seamless, pro-tempered glass and boards. The arena also boasts a state-of-the-art sound system. Both the Plattsburgh State men's and women's ice hockey programs have renovated locker rooms and fully equipped athletic training facilities easily accessible from the ice. Some of the amenities include individual padded locker stalls, flat-screen TV, video equipment, stereo-sound system and changing rooms. The school record of 4,000 fans (before the renovation) has been reached on 10 occasions. International exhibition matches against teams from Russia and Sweden have been played in front of sellout crowds at the arena. One of the nation's finest facilities for NCAA Division III ice hockey, the Arena has been the site of six NCAA Frozen Four events—three men's and three women's--and numerous national and conference tournament games. On the women's side, the Plattsburgh State Cardinals set a Division III regular-season attendance record on Feb. 8, 2006 with 1,736 in a 4–1 win over two-time defending national champion Middlebury — that record stood until Jan. 22, 2011; and the 2007 NCAA championship game outdrew its male counterpart by 300. More recently, the women have captured back to back national championships in the 2013–14 and 2014–15 seasons. These wins give the Cardinals a total of four national championships, setting the record for the most titles in Division III women's ice hockey. The women's ice hockey team played its first game in the arena on Nov. 9, 2001, defeating Elmira 2–0. The Cardinals have a 182-17-12 all-time record at home for an eye-popping .891 win percentage. During the 2005–06 season, the Cardinals led NCAA Division III women's ice hockey attendance with 7,645 fans for 17 home dates, or a 449 average. High school and youth hockey games are also played here.
