Another Step Forward for North Bay

In May, Gossips reported that the Columbia Land Conservancy (CLC) was seeking to acquire land in North Bay that belonged to the Hudson Industrial Development Agency (IDA). The plan is to build trails to connect Charles Williams Park with the Greenport Conservation Area and the network of trails that go all the way north to Harrier Hill. At its meeting this morning, the IDA approved the contract of sale, which will convey the parcel to CLC for $1. The heavy black line on the map below shows the perimeter of the parcel.

The parcel runs along the north edge of the Hudson Dog Park, and the dog park hopes to work with CLC to develop a trail from the dog park to the river, to give dogs and their humans a nature trail walking experience in addition to the dog park experience.
