Last Sunday I paid another visit to the Willamette River viewpoint at the foot of Broadalbin Street on Albany’s waterfront. Here’s what I found.
Albany’s Waterfront Project calls for power lines on three blocks of Water Avenue to be placed underground, and all Pacific Power customers within the city will be charged for the expense.
The July heat wave came at just the right time. This has been the first week that Albany’s new children’s splash pad was open in the renovated Monteith Riverpark.
Once again the construction gate was ajar and no one seemed to be around on Monday afternoon, so the bike and I snuck into Monteith Riverpark to look at how the park’s reconstruction was coming along.
My usual riverfront bike route goes past Albany’s Monteith Riverpark, where a contractor for the Portland & Western Railroad now is rebuilding the crossing at the entrance to the park.
The new stage at Monteith Riverpark looks almost finished, and on Tuesday I took advantage of an open gate in the construction fence to walk in and take a closer look.
