A co-founder of Goatocado restaurant in the Fan has hopped into Scott’s Addition with a new pizzeria.
Ian Newell opened Red Goat Pizza earlier this month at 2930 W. Broad St., Suite C.
Red Goat Pizza’s building is connected to Three Notch’d Brewing Co., Richmond Wine Station and Gather on West Broad Street, but the pizzeria’s door faces Altamont Avenue.
The space was formerly home to People’s Pie, which operated there from early 2020 until February. People’s Pie is continuing to offer its Detroit-style pies as a pop-up around town.

With a woman singing in Hindi on the stereo and an assortment of cultural items lining the shelves, this boutique would fit in any of the Indian or Indo-Guyanese enclaves in the New York City metro region.

What fun it is for a foodie to be able to walk the length of a gas station on Altamont Avenue in Rotterdam, New York, and be able to enjoy a sampling of Caribbean cuisine! While the Schenectady area has been known for years for its Italian restaurants, current residents have begun discovering Mexican, Thai, Guyanese and Dominican restaurants occupying small spaces but making big contributions to local dining choices.
A quick, 100-foot jaunt can transport you to a feast of sweet or savory empanadas, yellow rice and crispy catfish to the exotic flavors of Arroz Amarillo con Guandules (Pigeons with Yellow Rice) or Mofongo con Chicarron de Cardo (Mashed Green Plantains with Fried Pork).

SCHENECTADY Cold and frustrated union members picketed a Schenectady on Thursday as part of a larger protest over staffing in the for-profit nursing home industry in New York.
The small cluster of employees were outside the Schenectady Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing because it’s one of many nursing homes run by Centers Health Care, a large for-profit company.
