The Seneca Army Depot was a United States Army installation located in Romulus, New York. It was originally established in 1941 as a storage and disposal facility for conventional and chemical weapons. The depot served as a key storage site during World War II, the Korean War, and the Cold War.
The Seneca Army Depot was also known for its herd of white deer, which were originally introduced to the area in the 1940s. These deer became a local attraction and were considered a symbol of peace in the region.
In 1986, the depot was officially closed by the U.S. Army as part of a nationwide effort to consolidate military installations. The property was subsequently transferred to the Department of Energy for cleanup and environmental remediation.
Today, the former Seneca Army Depot is owned by the Seneca County Industrial Development Agency and is used for various purposes, including agriculture, wildlife conservation, and industrial development. The white deer population continues to thrive on the site and is a popular attraction for visitors to the area.
