On the Road: Newburgh, New York

Steve said...: I've been to Newburgh a couple of times. Last time was a few years ago on my way back from a business trip to Albany.

I pulled off the I-87 and drove down to the river - I always like to go hang out by water wherever I am. Back then, the waterfront at the end of downtown Newburgh was a wasteland, old and decrepit, gone to pot.

Now I understand that they are revitalizing the area with a few restaurants and shops and a waterfront park. I'll have to go back and check it out one of these days.; 7:44 AM
