This is not a building that easily lends itself to being developed for finished spaces on the ground floor. <br />The recently completed "Hudson Climate Adaptive-Design Phase II Final Preliminary Design Report" gathered input from the community on the design of the riverfront park and included the Dunn building. I don't believe anyone asked for the building to be leased or sold to a private entity. The common thread amongst the comments was for the building be a public space on the waterfront.Chris Hoppehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17841500479107601735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723709701684173708.post-42253288697250533402023-05-04T07:08:14.245-04:002023-05-04T07:08:14.245-04:00I'll be long dead and gone before anyone ever ...I'll be long dead and gone before anyone ever finishes that old warehouse.

What Hudson really needs is a homeless shelter and more low income housing. The Dunn building is perfect for this as the residents will be able to use the park for coffee and cigs without changing out of their pajamas. P.

It's a real industry where they, ya know, make stuff, package it, and ship it out of town to be sold. Yes, modern breweries also include tasting rooms where you can enjoy the product on site. Some people around here could use a drink, or not.Union Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00202329176999159989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723709701684173708.post-86112920560910789302023-05-03T13:03:57.476-04:002023-05-03T13:03:57.476-04:00Golly, I hope it becomes a brewery!
