ELMIRA, N.Y. (18 NEWS) - A piece of Elmira's history is officially restored.
Friends of the Elmira Civil War Prison Camp held a ceremony Saturday, celebrating opening day of the Civil War building.
To honor the grand opening, a civilian reenactment took place of the first day the prisoners arrived, marching from Erie Railroad Station to the site of Barracks #3 on Winsor Ave, the very same route they took to get to the camp in the 1860s.
