Yonkers is Bonkers
One of the most famous pieces of industrial architecture on the Hudson River - Glenwood Power Station - is at great risk of demolition, and much to the bewilderment of any student of planning, the mayor is slobbering his approval all over the idea. In a below the crease back page article, the Times quotes, "We need jobs and economic activity, and if preservation efforts become a roadblock, this mayor is not going to support them.” Yea, tear down one of the most attractive and meaningful draws to rusty ole Yonkers, and put up some vapid slab of speculative garbage & reap those bribes, Mayor Amicone, thats vision! Wow, have we not learned anything in the last 40 years. Keep your eyes on the Amazing & Admirable Hudson Valley Ruins. In addition to the Glenwood Power Station, the Yonkers Masonic Lodge is at even greater risk, mentioned in the Times article and on HVR.org.
