I live in a mostly residential, yet moderately action-packed part of Albany near Washington Park and I love it. Been down here about 10 years. You'll see a little bit of everything if you keep your eyes to the streets (and are a wee bit on the nosey side). But what I saw last night, just a few moments after it happened, was a first.
