A quick recap of the week
Here are a few highlights from the past week on AOA:
+ Nicole was back with a new Open House, talking with a resident of one of the new residential conversions in downtown Albany.
+ Cristin vegged out at The Bier Abbey.
+ Carrie asked about recommendations for local CSAs (farm shares).
+ What was up in the Neighborhood this week: craft brewing, chicken wings, fish fry, 15 Church, MAAC-n-Cheese, vegan food, fried chicken and pinball, Boston, thyme and time, pizza, self-evident truths, entrepreneurship, hiking, waterfalls, highway building, Aunt Schuyler, and creative photography.
+ Wednesday the earliest 80-degree day of the year on record.
+ We talked with Albany Public Library exec director Scott Jarzombek about about why people are waiting to get into libraries in the morning, ebooks versus old-school books, libraries as community hubs, the persistence of old media, and... the best books he's read recently.
+ Here's the plan for the much-anticipated Madison Ave Road Diet in Albany.
+ Steve tried the spaghetti sandwich at the Peck's Arcade pop-up cart.
+ The Crisan Cafe has returned, but in a new spot.
+ And early crocuses.
Here's the whole week in one place.

Say Something!
We'd really like you to take part in the conversation here at All Over Albany. But we do have a few rules here. Don't worry, they're easy. The first: be kind. The second: treat everyone else with the same respect you'd like to see in return. Cool? Great, post away. Comments are moderated so it might take a little while for your comment to show up. Thanks for being patient.
