Governor Andrew Cuomo has been awarding $10 million to cities in the ten regions of the state in his Downtown Revitalization Initiative since the beginning of July. Today the winner in the Capital Region--our region--was announced. Eight cities--Albany, Rensselaer, Cohoes, Troy, Schenectady, Glens Falls, Mechanicville, and Hudson--and two villages--Castleton-on-Hudson and Hudson Falls--were competing for the $10 million. Many had predicted that the money would go to one of the big cities--Albany, Schenectady, or Troy--but that didn't happen. It also didn't come to Hudson. The winner was Glens Falls.
