Revitalizing Spaces, Uniting Community

Project Perry, an initiative by the Plattsburg Community Association (PCA) and in Partnership with the City of Plattsburg, Parks, and the Clinton County Historical Society (CCHS), is dedicated to transforming our local park and historic train depot into vibrant, welcoming spaces for everyone to enjoy. This comprehensive project includes a multi-use ADA trail (walking & biking) with trail head and ADA parking , community garden, new picnic tables, stage, the installation of a playground, new basketball court with protective chainlink fencing and side bench. Additionally, we are restoring concrete wall sections under the shelter and creating a mural that highlights community spirit and local heritage. New public restrooms will also be constructed to enhance convenience and hygiene for park visitors. As part of a partnership with the Clinton County Historical Society, we are also committed to preserving and restoring the historical train depot and pole barn, turning the buildings into a museum and community hub for events and activities. Project Perry is a commitment to creating a safer, more inclusive, and aesthetically pleasing environment for all residents, fostering a stronger, more connected community. Join us in making Project Perry a reality and witness the positive impact of revitalization in our community.

Christmas in Victorian Plattsburg

Where Victorian Charm Meets Christmas Magic

Plattsburg Community Association and the City of Plattsburg are partnering to create Christmas in Victorian Plattsburg, a heritage tourism initiative that transforms the community into a Christmas destination. Rooted in the town’s Victorian charm and the legacy of Santa Claus Shaver, the project will bring history to life with carolers in period dress, horse-drawn carriage, and storefronts aglow with holiday cheer. A major highlight will be the creation of a drive-thru light display in Perkins Park, offering families a dazzling and immersive holiday tradition. Together, these efforts will establish Plattsburg as a must-visit destination where the magic of Christmas meets the beauty of Victorian heritage.

Where Nature, Community, and Harmony Come Together

The Fireman's Park Revitalization project aims to transform our beloved park into a more beautiful, functional, and inviting space for the entire community. This comprehensive initiative includes an updated picnic and gathering area, perfect for family outings and community events. A new landscaped creek will be created, controlling the spring water to offer a visually stunning experience while eliminating marshy areas. To enhance accessibility, new sidewalks will be laid, and a bridge will be constructed over the creek to seamlessly connect both sections of the park. Additionally, a botanical section featuring wildflowers will be added, along with extra benches for visitors to relax and enjoy the natural beauty. This project is a testament to our commitment to enhancing community spaces, fostering a deeper connection with nature, and providing a harmonious environment for everyone to enjoy.

 Improving safety, walkability, and bikability in our town.

The Plattsburg Transportation Alternatives: Safe Steps Initiative is a collaborative effort between the Platasburg Community Association (PCA) and the City of Plattsburg, focused on enhancing safety and walkability in our town. Through grants and community support, this project aims to create safer sidewalks, bike lanes, and crosswalks, ensuring a secure journey for children heading to school, the public pool, playgrounds, and back home. By prioritizing pedestrian safety, we are fostering a more connected and accessible community for everyone. This initiative reflects our commitment to making Plattsburg a safer, more walkable town for residents of all ages.

Preserving Heritage While Enhancing The Journey

The Plattsburg Community Association partnered with the local community spearheading a transformative project to revitalize the historic Jefferson Highway--Broadway & Main streets. This initiative focuses on enhancing the aesthetic and functional aspects of the highway to preserve its rich history while promoting modern usability. Key components of the project include the addition of a dedicated bike lane and new sidewalks to ensure safety and accessibility for pedestrians and cyclists. Historic lights, flags, and sidewalk stamps will be installed to honor the highway’s storied past, as well as the restoration of the original horse hitches, all on Broadway, will add a charming touch of authenticity. Through these improvements, the Plattsburg Community Association aims to foster a deeper appreciation for local heritage while encouraging active transportation and community engagement.
