Academy Street

Academy Street from Main Street Academy Street is a short street that runs north from St. Bernard Street directly in front of St. Bernard's Church, to the rear of the Hotel Saranac, then takes a short dogleg west and north to Main Street. (However, it is a one-way street that runs the opposite direction, north to south.) It was named for the school that preceded the original Saranac Lake High School. ^{1 2} It had the reputation of having no residents with active tuberculosis. ³

A daughter of one of the Latin American patients, believed to be from the Serralles family, was married at St. Bernard's Church. The ceremony was remembered in Saranac Lake because a red carpet was laid for it, extending most of the length of Academy Street, between the church and the reception at the Hotel Saranac.
