Poughkeepsie Waterfront: What’s Next?
I have owned my home in the City of Poughkeepsie for over 20 years, and feel that my “not too far from the river” neighborhood has been up and coming for the whole time I’ve been here. Doesn’t there come a time when it finally reaches the “we’ve gotten there” goal?
When the Walkway Over the Hudson opened, we were sure it would mean great things for our neighborhood. And it did at first, then it seemed to stall. And we’ve all been saying that once they develop the waterfront property, we’ll be good as gold. But we’ve been saying it for years. The property just sits there. There were ideas for it in the past, but nothing happened.
