homes for sale: Nyack Wins Benjamin Moore Contest
- 07/08/13 10:15 PM
Well it’s official – the Village of Nyack downtown is about to get a jolt of color. The announcement this past Monday that Nyack had received enough votes to win the Benjamin Moore “Main Street matters” campaign is exciting news for all of us. Merchants and residents alike are excited for work to begin. I think it’s great that the program will hire local painters to do the work, and those merchants and building owners get to choose their colors. It’s a win-win situation.

homes for sale: HBO Coming To Nyack
- 06/13/13 10:27 PM
It looks like Nyack will be a location for a new HBO series called “The Leftovers”. The story is based on the best-selling novel by Tom Perrotta. Interesting story where 2 percent of the population just vanishes. It reminds me of a Peter Weir film “Picnic at Hanging Rock” where a class from a girls school in Australia go on a picnic and a few of the girls just vanish-very mysterious. The casting director will be looking for townspeople to be extras for the series. Anyone interested is encouraged to audition from 4-7 at the Nyack Center this Saturday. Justin Theroux … (0 comments)

homes for sale: Nyack Says Goodbye to Stop and Shop
- 06/01/13 06:42 AM
It is with heavy heart and a wistful sigh that I write about the loss of a local commercial establishment that we will all surely miss. Our local Stop and Shop is closing and they have already reopened a big, shiny super Stop and Shop on Rt. 303 in Orangeburg -ugh. Formerly a Grand Union and now currently our little Stop and Shop on Rt. 59 is where you are always guaranteed to meet some friend or another from Nyack, and as Larry David would say do a stop and chat and pick up something for dinner as well. I chuckle … (0 comments)

homes for sale: Skateboarding in Nyack
- 03/07/13 08:29 PM
Nyack’s Village Hall was packed on Feb 28. What issue attracted so many you might ask. Well it wasn’t to complain about anything, but they were there to voice their support for a proposed skate plaza in Memorial Park. The crowd was a mélange of kids, young moms, business people, and teens. The sweet scent of Gypsy Donuts wafted through the air as the meeting proceeded.
Proponents of the skate plaza say skateboarding is great exercise, and is safer than other sports such as cycling, baseball, and basketball. They also say a well- built plaza requires little maintenance, and would … (1 comments)
