A quick recap of the week
Here are a few highlights from the past week on AOA:
+ Could the next version of the Warehouse District looks like this?
+ Henry Johnson was finally awarded the Medal of Honor.
+ Deanna tried the naan pizza at A Better Bite.
+ Here's a new look at the planned $3.8 million visitors center for Thacher State Park -- an idea which some push back from people.
+ The schedule for the NYS Writers Institute summer series is out.
+ What was up in the Neighborhood this week: Albany to Chicago, returning here, the Freihofer's Run for Women, Karner Blue paradise, Pharaoh Mountain, Schodack Island, Lake George, four good people, a foraged dinner, the restaurant industry, like a moth, beer, burgers, a bright smudge, photos, and China.
+ A "dissolving" look at Broadway in Albany comparing 1938 and now.
+ New (short) series alert: Lauren is surveying local brunch spots, and started with the City Beer Hall.
+ Photos of the Albany in Australia.
+ A glimpse into the life of a 19th century Albany family.
+ There's a new design for the Schenectady casino project.
+ A dreamy moment of summer from this week.
+ And tickets are now sale for this year's AOA summer tour -- we're headed back to Hudson! (Last year's tour sold out, so it's a good idea to get tickets sooner rather than later.)
Thanks to everyone who posted a comment or shared an idea or photo this week!
