Take an inspired drive-by! St. Joseph’s Church is a testament to the divine inspiration of architect Patrick Keely. The church held its last service in 1993 and today is under restoration by the Historic Albany Foundation to save a building that deserves to continue to grace the capital city skyline.
Outdoor lovers go to Albany Pine Bush Preserve. Hikers naturally want to spend time at a nature preserve that treks along trails where visitors camp out to enjoy bird watching, hiking, jogging, horseback riding and even cross-country skiing! Enjoy conservation and recreation!
