As we endure one of the coldest winters in recent memory it is important to take steps to prevent your pipes from freezing. I just went through the experience, and it is not pretty. We woke up about a week ago with very little water pressure .

- 06/14/14 10:16 AM
We have been thinking about adding a proper master bedroom and enlarging our kitchen for a few years now, and recently decided to take the plunge. We called in about 3 contractors to get estimates. The estimates were all very close to each other, but were much more than we wanted to spend.We made the decision to be the general contractor for the job. We would oversee the framing, electrical, plumbing, and purchasing of the supplies. This is definitely not for the fainthearted, but can save you lots of money. This blog is not really about our experiences so far as … (0 comments)

From time to time I like to highlight a village merchant that for me exemplifies the joy of being part of a close knit community such as Nyack. The Nyack Barber Shop on Main Street is just one of the those places. The owners name is Vlad, and he always has a warm smile, and is genuinely happy to see you when you come through his door. His shop harks back to an almost bygone era where the barber shop was a place for community members to catch up with local gossip and talk politics as well. You can also … (2 comments)

- 08/20/13 12:35 AM
According to Jim Politi, Nyack Village Administrator our recreational sprinklers are now operational. It was very unfortunate that a broken part took the sprinklers offline for most of the summer, but they are back. Weather forecasts say that it will be a hot week so take the kids and a picnic lunch and cool off down by the river in Nyack Memorial Park. Very important - you rest your hand on the the black cover of the short green post. The heat from your hand activates the sprinklers – very high tech. J
