Wondering if anyone can keep a lookout for a bike that was stolen from my house today at 6 am? In the Washington Ave/Rosemont Street area. They walked into the garage and took it :( it's hard to find a bike that fits me. Going to file a police report when I get home but that will be a little while from now. Any help is appreciated. Tried to show the outfit of the guy who took it but it's hard to make out any features.

Its a pretty unique bike because it's old so Im hoping it's recognizable, a teal GT Talera. Thank you for any help

I don't usually support telling people when there is a checkpoint. But the rensselaer cops and state police have a checkpoint set up at the end of the bridge as you get to rensselaer. Thought it was weird for a Wednesday night, but then i realized its because tonight at the plaza is Ghostface Killah... watch out for this racist operation

Went to the boil shack for the first time tonight and was surprised to see this thing wheeling around. It felt very dystopian lmao. I get that it’s helpful for the servers but it’s just so weird…..

Is there some history that would be worth learning about?

All photos taken by me within the town of East Greenbush, NY.

Last image shows the location of the town within Rensselaer County and New York State.

“Four at Forty-Five Degrees,” part of the Empire State Plaza Art Collection and currently on loan to the New York State Museum, shows how Calder used open, airy forms to shape space rather than fill it. 

In the 1960s, Calder started working with massive steel sheets, creating large-scale works that felt both architectural and playful. His “Triangles and Arches” #AtThePlaza is a perfect example — its bold shapes echo the nearby Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, blending art and environment in a way only Calder could. 

Today, we celebrate his legacy and the joy, movement, and imagination his work inspires. Look up, stay grounded, and let creativity move you. 💫

I bought a pack of Thomas' Corn Toasters the other day and holy hell were those things disappointing. Small, flat, just all around an incredible letdown, nothing even close to the lucious goodness that Freihofer's Corn Toasties used to bring. Does anyone know if any local or regional bakeries or whatnot might have picked up the slack? Probably not, I'd have probably heard something about it or been able to find something in a search, but hey always worth asking.

Not as bad as the previous few changes, and obviously not final.

First image is Glens Falls changes, 2nd is Albany changes (I can't seem to switch the order)

Since it is summer, let's go back in time and raise our glasses to this iconic commercial and best jingle

I know this is probably a long shot.
Does anyone know what url the CDPHP app targets?
Apparently it’s not https://CDPHP.com. My password manager does recognize it as the proper domain when logging in and I have to search for it. It would be nice if it worked and I could then use biometric authentication.

I saw this post on fb marketplace, and am wondering if there’s any way I can help. I am not familiar with anyone but Mohawk Hudson?
I just want to help

Back in the before times I was going to poetry open mics. I've recently wanted to get back into it, but the Albany Poets website seems deserted and I'm not on Facebook or Instagram.

Does anyone know of the upcoming schedule or any open mics?

Anyone know when this is supposed to open? It’s been like this for awhile now

I’m looking for recommendations in the Capital Region based on personal experiences for the best elementary schools, districts, and programs for autistic kids with special needs. I’m not happy with our current district and I’m looking to move our son asap.
Thank you for your help and input!

helloooo i have a bunch of xbox 360 games and a console id like to sell, so was wondering what store in the area would give me the best deal? shroomy’s? Jay St? Pastime legends?

Well My husband and I have lived in Albany for three weeks now and today he got propositioned by a prostitute while grabbing stuff from our car! A warm albany welcome :)

Saw this very recently posted on NextDoor without any evidence or links. Anyone know if this is actually a thing?

Next Wednesday, July 29th!

Just trying to find out if one ER is preferable to another or they are all the same.

It seems to be the best experiences are reported at Samaritan on Northern Blvd, the worst at Ellis.

Hola everyone! I recently moved to Albany and have been getting to know the local business community

I've spent the last 15+ years building web applications for startups, small businesses and communities when I was in the Bay Area and Brooklyn; I originally went to art school and love working with creatives, and prefer to work with locals instead of being all remote

There's a couple meetups and events I went to, and curious if there are more, or if there's interest to get together

If anyone here owns a business needs help with their online presence, feel free to send me a message. Happy to chat and help out if it is something simple or work in your budget. I'm also on the rave scene, doing photography or harm reduction and happy to connect about that
