Anything new on the riverfront? Just this

On the riverfront beat: Torn flag is gone
Written April 13th, 2025 by Hasso Hering

A sunny day on the riverfront path
The Dave Clark Riverfront Path in Albany is a nice place to walk or ride a bike, even when a section of it looks like in the photo above.
