Reneighboring Kingston
This special project requires a village
by Geddy Sveikauskas

If it wanted to, the NoVo in Kingston Foundation controlled by Peter and Jennifer Buffett has the assets to build dozens more examples of the not-for-profit $55-million, 74,000-square-foot The Metro complex off Greenkill Avenue in midtown Kingston — to which it offered a tour to the local press last Thursday afternoon.
Of course, NoVo in Kingston has no such intention. The Metro project, which Peter Buffett said last week would open in phases starting later this year, is going to be one of a kind....
...For The Metro, a sense of full participation is a necessary ingredient in the human dignity that accompanies the pursuit of happiness. If NoVo in Kingston is fully to succeed, it must include a stronger sense of participation in this project than it presently offers. That’s what social democracy is all about.

When Nekos Luncheonette closed on Wall Street, my father and I moved our daily lunches to Uptown Grill. It was a neighborhood spot for locals mainly. Friendly people with decent diner food at decent prices. Back in 2019 the owner Tom approached us with an apologetic look in his eye. " We are closing." He said the owners had bigger plans, or something like that. He decided he would just shut it down now rather than wait. Well here we are in 2026 having passed this place almost everyday and there it sat slowly deteriorating. Until today when the construction trucks appeared and the demolition began. Hard to believe it has been 7 years!

After a wave of complaints, Ulster County restricts overnight access to Kingston’s Midtown Linear Park

To hear Kristen Wilson, deputy planning director for Ulster County, tell it, come dusk the Midtown Linear Park devolves into a theater of anarchy with ominous implications for the social contract in Kingston.

As she explained to the Transit Riders & Intermodal Advisory Committee at its June 23 meeting, business owners and residents had experienced acts of violence, and reports of attacks against people using the trail for transportation had also come to her attention.
