The much anticipated Constellation Project by Melissa McGill will be launching Sunday, June 28 7:30-9:30pm on Bannerman Island. The lights will be viewable from Newburgh, especially from the Bluff in the Heights neighborhood. If you want to get closer, you can do a boat tour, or a kayak tour.

It was a mansion that had seen better days, that would have surely fallen victim to the decay and neglect that so many other surrounding homes had succumbed to. I don’t remember the exact year I took […]
This will be wonderful from the bluff in the Heights…a community BBQ may be in order 🙂
That’s a great idea, perhaps along the ‘view shed’, aka ‘green zone’. Back in the day, ’60’s early 70’s, when growing up in Brooklyn we had ‘block’ parties…close off the street, open barbeques, stick-ball, etc.. Good times, everyone had each other’s back.
