Touring the decked halls, virtually

posted Dec 14, 2018

Check it: There are 3D virtual tours of holiday greens show Hart-Cluett House in Troy and the holiday-decorated Ten Broeck Mansion in Albany.

The tours were created* by the local company Hudson Virtual Tours, which has been using the tech to document historic sites. (The company is also marketing the service to the real estate industry.)

These 3D captures can also be uploaded to Google Maps, where it shows up like Google Streetview. The Hart-Cluett House streetview is embedded above. (Here's Ten Broeck.)
