It's the second half of November as the label job I ran today reminds me. 🏷️ The landscape is cold and barren, it's dark out for a good portion of day, and riding home in the dark isn't much fun. But you make the best of it, and I figure the extra sleep and time to learn isn't a bad thing. πŸ›Œ Next adventure after Thanksgiving! πŸ¦ƒ Hopefully the fire risk is down by then as I want to have a big bonfire in wilderness πŸ”₯ after a good day riding trail or hiking. 🚢

Between South Swan And Eagle Street Albany – 1952

Ortho Between South Swan And Eagle Street Albany - 1952

This 1952 aerial photo shows the neighborhood in Albany that would be demolished for the Empire State Plaza, between South Swan Street and Eagle Street. Long forgotten streets, like High Street and South Hawk Street can be found in this dense urban neighbohood which within 10 years would be out by the state, and within 15 years would be entirely carted off to dumping grounds in Glenmont behind Erastus Corning's house near the intersection of US 9W and NY 32.
