A quick recap of the week

week review 2017-06-02

Here are a few highlights from the past short week on AOA:

+ Eat This: Deanna stopped at Anna's Wood Fired Pizza for pizza (what else?).

+ The schedule for this summer's At The Plaza series of events is out.

+ We gave away tickets to the Albany Public Library Foundation's Literary Libations history pub crawl by asking: What would be the title of your Capital Region novel?

+ What was up in the Neighborhood this week: the totally believable fight over the LOB, pomp and circumstance, Pratt's Rock, the ratio of jerks to good people, faith and love, going wild, Mountain Ridge Adventure, the stresses of restaurant life, latte art, a beer dinner, Kismet, salad, enough, mocktails, an apples crate, and The Bear of Voorheesville.

+ Walking the new (very, very, very green) multi-use path along Corning Riverfront Park.

+ The new mural on the Quackebush Garage in downtown Albany is really fun.

+ Some of the questions Albany has to answer as it figures what to do with its trash.

+ And here's the lineup for this summer's Alive at Five.

Here's the whole week in one place.

Thanks to everyone who posted a comment or shared an idea this week!

The Scoop

For a decade All Over Albany was a place for interested and interesting people in New York's Capital Region. It was kind of like having a smart, savvy friend who could help you find out what's up. AOA stopped publishing at the end of 2018.
