On Friday, the Preservation League of New York State published a post on its blog about the recent demolition of 201 Elk Street and its neighbors in Albany's Sheridan Hollow, an action they say "has us thinking about the loss of industrial history, the challenges in investing in economically distressed neighborhoods, issues with long-term municipal ownership of vacant buildings, and the environmental impact of demolition, especially as construction and demolition landfills expand around New York State." All of these issues have relevance for us here in Hudson, some even more than others. The post can be read here: "Demolition Alert: 201 Elk St., Albany."
