Now a group from the Yale School of Architecture is doing a project on Hudson, which focuses in part on the waterfront. To assist in this effort, Sam Pratt created a timeline of Hudson history. That timeline can be found here.
The timeline makes clear that Hudson's waterfront has played a central role in the city's economic, cultural, and civic development far beyond the shoreline itself. Today, that legacy is at risk following the Hudson Planning Board's 2025 approval of a Conditional Use Permit for the dock--owned and operated by A. Colarusso & Sons since 2014--that imposes no limit on truck volume and allows weekend operation.
