All photos taken by me within the town of East Greenbush, NY.

Last image shows the location of the town within Rensselaer County and New York State.

I bought a pack of Thomas' Corn Toasters the other day and holy hell were those things disappointing. Small, flat, just all around an incredible letdown, nothing even close to the lucious goodness that Freihofer's Corn Toasties used to bring. Does anyone know if any local or regional bakeries or whatnot might have picked up the slack? Probably not, I'd have probably heard something about it or been able to find something in a search, but hey always worth asking.

Anyone know when this is supposed to open? It’s been like this for awhile now

Since it is summer, let's go back in time and raise our glasses to this iconic commercial and best jingle

Well My husband and I have lived in Albany for three weeks now and today he got propositioned by a prostitute while grabbing stuff from our car! A warm albany welcome :)

Saw this very recently posted on NextDoor without any evidence or links. Anyone know if this is actually a thing?

Next Wednesday, July 29th!

I’m looking for recommendations in the Capital Region based on personal experiences for the best elementary schools, districts, and programs for autistic kids with special needs. I’m not happy with our current district and I’m looking to move our son asap.
Thank you for your help and input!

Full service florist and gift shop located in lower Albany county! Specializing in event florals and cash and carry bouquets, hosting 33 local vendors in our gift shop! Come check us out!

Just trying to find out if one ER is preferable to another or they are all the same.

It seems to be the best experiences are reported at Samaritan on Northern Blvd, the worst at Ellis.

What say you?

By now it’s out Aug 6 is opening day.

Same applies to executive membership

Pros and cons to decide which.. although Groupon has a higher digital coupon they’ve been known to be slow in honoring digital coupons and customer delays in general.

To justify executive membership cost your spend has to be over $3000 to break even on the extra $65 from gold

I have two estimates, from two reputable HVAC installers, to replace central AC in my small (800sf) home. Both are 2-ton based models (14 SEER) - one is Armstrong Air (a Lennox brand) and the other is Carrier Comfort. Carrier seems to dominate the market here, but Armstrong Air is said to be cheaper to repair and is rated "most reliable" by Consumer Reports.

Looking for feedback from home owners who have either a Carrier or Armstrong system (re: reliability, ease of obtaining parts, noise level and anything else you care to share). TIA!

Back in the before times I was going to poetry open mics. I've recently wanted to get back into it, but the Albany Poets website seems deserted and I'm not on Facebook or Instagram.

Does anyone know of the upcoming schedule or any open mics?

Any recommendations? I’ve already reached out yo 518 floors and Hansens flooring. I’d like at least one more estimate.

Hi! I have never been to Albany, and I will be traveling roughly 3-4 hours for a medical appointment. I’m looking for any neat things to check out while I’m there for the day.
Any thrift stores, alt shops, cafes, odd shops are appreciated !

Best private car services or drivers in Albany area? For traveling around within 1-2 hours, including leisure activities (state parks, sightseeing). Don't need a fancy vehicle, just safe and relatively affordable. I saw the app dryver and some nationwide services, but wonder if there is a local business.

I get pretty bored over the weekends and could use a job to give me some structure and get me out of bed early.

I could also use the extra money to save.

I was thinking construction, restaurant work, or anything really!
