I have lived in Albany since the 1990's. The skyline of any city brands itself into your psyche. Once you move to Albany, you definitely ask questions about Empire State Plaza, Corning Tower, The Capital and The Egg. They are architecturally different from the rest of the buildings in the City of Albany. The view is linear on your horizon's eye and situated next to each other. They are a catalyst for asking questions about the history of Albany. You will receive the answers proudly or bashfully. Once your skyline focus is removed from the Plaza, you will see the spires from various religious institutions, MVP Arena, bridges across the Hudson River and Nipper the dog.

I just read that more apartments are for rent in downtown Albany. The address for these newly converted apartments is 90 State Street. This former savings bank building is at the corner of State Street and South Pearl Street. It is an art deco structure originally built in the 1930's and it is gorgeous. The whole building is not being converted, but fourteen new apartments will be available for rent on eleven floors. These brand new luxury rentals will be called Abraxas Apartments.https://www.abraxasat90state.com/about/

We are still talking about having a gondola over the Hudson River from Rensselaer to Albany? Here is the website. http://capitalgondola.com/about-cdg/ The answer is yes. My first actual question after I guffawed is how much money am I the taxpayer going to have to shell out? According to the website this endeavor will be privately funded for $25 million dollars. With the higher cost of everything including electricity, gas and rising inflation, I imagine that the price tag for this venture will definitely increase.
