Cohoes, NY: The Forgotten City Of The Capital Region

Cohoes, NY: The Forgotten City Of The Capital Region

This film discusses some of the history of Cohoes, NY, why we think it's forgotten & where it stands today. Cohoes is a small city which is part of Albany County in Upstate New York. When it comes to Capital Region tourism, we don't ever hear about Cohoes. Just look around...there's a lot of empty, abandoned & boarded up buildings all over town. This tells me that it is most definitely a dying city. In November 2017 there was a massive fire that destroyed an entire block on Remsen Street.

There is a flip side to this coin. You can see some efforts to revitalize the city. It isn't gentrifying though.

Added bonus:
Trip to Peebles Island State Park & Cohoes Falls.
