  1. Only in Hudson...

    $220 million. ~250 apartments. Built over ~5-10 years if there are no major delays.

    That is about $800,000 per subsidized apartment, the largest capital project in Hudson and Columbia County (?) since the St. Lawrence Cement proposal (which was never built), and it gets less scrutiny than the historical appropriateness of a carriage house remodel or the yellow paint on the sidewalk.

    Pocketbook, JLE plan, Columbia Memorial Hospital, Columbia Green Community College, the hotels, all under $50m?

    What does this say... trucks on Warren and the 1st Ward = bad and 20 years of litigation.

    Thousands of new trucks carrying out asbestos and building materials in the 2nd ward, building on unstable soil (again) = not bad, just green light it.
