Brambor: Unfortunately, there are no signs or medallions right now. In fact, there is nothing to signify you’ve reached the end/beginning.
In Buffalo, the beginning/end is at the middle of the little bridge in Canalside (42.8773245, -78.8793415).
In Albany, it’s somewhere at Jennings Landing (42.6486938, -73.7476400) but I’m not exactly sure where.
It would be a nice informational/conversation starter. A sign in Buffalo saying “Albany 380 miles —-]” might get others interested in cycling this historic route. In fact coming out of Buffalo, you’re only likely to see “Shoreline Trail” signs until you get to Tonawanda.
When I did the GAP/C&O years ago, I relied in this video to get me to the Thompson Boat House, otherwise I’m not sure I would have found Mile 0 right away! https://youtu.be/9kzs51zRsSY
