riverton in upper nyack: Great Auto Mechanic in Nyack
- 12/25/13 07:47 PM
There is a truly great auto mechanic in Nyack. His name is Kevin, and his shop is called Kevin’s Ace Repairs. Actually I have never asked him where the Ace comes from. Will have to inquire on next visit. Kevin has been taking care of our various cars for over 20 years. From our 1988 Ford Bronco, Volkswagen Jetta and Passat to our Volvo SUV we have never thought to go anywhere else. A story my husband likes to tell which describes Kevin takes place about 20 years ago. My husband worked in Clifton, NJ at the time, and he … (1 comments)
riverton in upper nyack: Sprinklers in Nyack Memorial Park Working Again
- 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

riverton in upper nyack: 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)
riverton in upper nyack: 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)
riverton in upper nyack: Art in Nyack and Dinner in Nyack
- 03/29/13 09:56 PM
Well the kids are in Florida for the break, and my husband and myself spent the day in New York city at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. We had wanted to see the William Eggleston show, and it did not disappoint. Beautifully executed dye transfer prints were in abundance. We returned to Nyack, and decided to eat at one of our favorite restaurants – Café Barcel on Main Street. The relaxed atmosphere, delicious food, and extremely attentive staff make the couple of hours spent there feel like a mini vacation. … (0 comments)
