Answer:

Watertown.

Explanation:

Polaris is the north star in the constellation Ursa Minor. It is also known as the North Star or the Pole Star. It is the brightest star of the constellation. Polaris does not move from its place in the sky. Polaris is close to the celestial pole in north.

The location from where one can see Polaris at a higher altitude would be Watertown. Watertown's approximate co-ordinates is 44 degree North, 76 degree West, which is above Oswego's location. Therefore, Watertown is the correct answer.
