If you travel on Albany Shaker Road under the bridges of the Northway in Colonie, then you probably have noticed that the bridges look like they might be in rough shape.
Colonie police responded to the Central Avenue Goodwill Store Saturday afternoon after a pair of grenades were reportedly found in the store.
If you were around the area of Central Avenue and Fuller Road in Colonie on Saturday afternoon, at about 1:30 p.m., you may have seen some police cars and several other official vehicles in the parking lot of the Goodwill Store.
As a lifelong Town of Colonie native, I was asked by a new employee here at the station to tell her about my hometown. I rattled off a few things that prove I have never left this beautiful town. Like, "You know you're from Colonie IF you still mourn the closing of L-Ken's."
An Albany area building which houses two businesses, and was considered a landmark was destroyed by fire. I saw a posting on Face Book that stated “Goodbye Handy Andy”. That raised my curiosity.
