A perspective from Oregon’s mid-Willamette Valley

Downtown streets: The party had just begun

Written September 2nd, 2023 by Hasso Hering

It’s not often you see downtown Albany streets so full of people as Second Avenue was on Saturday afternoon.


Watching you: Eyes above downtown corner

Police-type lights were flashing blue and red in the sky over downtown Albany Thursday. On a bike ride Thursday night, I saw them from blocks away. What was going on?


What’s this? A big party downtown!

At first, all I heard on a bike ride through Albany on Saturday night was the sound. Sounded like a band.
