  • Driving downtown - Troy, NY. USA
    Troy is a city in the U.S. state of New York and the seat of Rensselaer County. The city is located on the western edge of Rensselaer County and on the eastern bank of the Hudson River. Troy has close ties to the nearby cities of Albany and Schenectady, forming a region popularly called the Capital District. The city is one of the three major centers for the Albany Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), which has a population of 1,170,483. At the 2010 census, the population of Troy was 50,129.
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troy,_N...
    The Central Troy Historic District is an irregularly shaped, 96-acre area of downtown Troy, New York, United States. It has been described as "one of the most perfectly preserved 19th-century downtowns in the [country]"with nearly 700 properties in a variety of architectural styles from the early 19th to mid-20th centuries. These include most of Russell Sage College, one of two privately owned urban parks in New York, and two National Historic Landmarks. Visitors ranging from the Duke de la Rochefoucauld to Philip Johnson have praised aspects of it. Martin Scorsese used parts of downtown Troy as a stand-in for 19th-century Manhattan in The Age of Innocence.
    In 1986, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), superseding five smaller historic districts that had been listed on the Register in the early 1970s.(Two years later, in 1988, the extension of the previous River Street Historic District north of Federal Street was added separately to the NRHP as the Northern River Street Historic District.) There are many buildings designed by the regionally significant architect Marcus F. Cummings. The downtown street plan was borrowed from Philadelphia, and one neighborhood, Washington Square, was influenced by London's squares of its era.
    The district reflects Troy's evolution from its origins as a Hudson River port into an early industrial center built around textile manufacture and steelmaking. During this period it was rebuilt twice in the wake of two devastating fires, resulting in its mix of architecture styles. After the decline of its industries in the mid-20th century, downtown Troy was threatened by urban renewal efforts that galvanized local preservationists, leading to the early NRHP listings and eventually the creation of the district.

    Just visited two days ago from Brooklyn. I was surprised by the number of historic buildings in the downtown area. Reviewing websites I also find that Troy is very affordable. I am very intrigued! Now with at least 25-30%poverty rate and a crime rate that's higher the NYC (per capita) what are some of the other drawback? because this looks like a great place to live and start a business.

    Nice video. Troy was once a really nice city back in the day. But like any other city it is not without it's problems. There is still a sense of community, but it will take more than that to clean it up. The mayor needs to step up and take responsibility for this city that he was elected to oversee, they need more police and fireman as they are short staffed now. People are paying high property taxes and not getting anything for the hard earned money that they pay in.

    good video, but i think this is very misleading to a lot of people who dont live here or know the area. i live in troy and go to school here and its and shithole. violence and danger still ravage the neighborhoods. i cant even count how many houses in troy where murders have occurred, it’s unreal. one time my friend told me about a quadruple murder that occurred at a house about 3 down from her. another time a few years ago i almost died in a drive-by shooting with my dad when we were going to pick up a gift card at a pizza place. it turned out the target was a girl who i went to school with a long time ago (she lived in the house next door from the place). no one was hurt but it was still really dangerous. just recently theres already been about 4 or 5 shootings near my school alone, all gang related. it might be nice to drive thru for a visit but its a nightmare to live here.
