A trip down memory lane at Mosaic

A summer picnic on Hamilton Street.
Before moving to Spruce Street in the early 1990's, Ogdensburg's Intermediate Care Facility One was located at 221 Hamilton Street. 14 residents lived in the building, attached to the United Helpers Management Office (732 Ford Street), and we recently found photos of that time and wanted to share the good memories!
