Hidden Gem of the Hudson River | Poughkeepsie, NY

In our Coverage Project history we have visited many places in New York State, but most of these locations have been rather westerly. Once we travel east enough, we reach for the first time the Hudson Valley: a region of the Empire State characterized by its proximity to the namesake river and a culture somewhat under the influence of the greater New York City area. The Hudson River has served wonders for the east coast of the Mid-Atlantic. Used by the Mohawk, then Dutch, English and now American people, this body of water has given its surrounding area much economic prosperity for whomever inhabited it and thus a high desire for its control over hundreds of years. Along its banks sits a rather quaint city known as Poughkeepsie. Today we dive into a bit of its history and discover this area's stunning sights, man-made and natural. Don't drive past this place on your way to the Big Apple, give the hidden but beautiful Poughkeepsie a chance! Are you ready to embark on this new trip across one of the nation's oldest and culturally-rich regions? Here's to finally starting our next tour, the New England Excursion!

⁴ᴷ⁶⁰ Walking Poughkeepsie, NY (Narrated) : Little Italy Residential Area (October 12, 2019)

Google Maps Route:

A quick walk in Poughkeepsie, NY from the Metro North Station through the Residential Area of Little Italy along Verrazzano Boulevard, Bridge Street, Mill Street, and Dongan Place.

From Wikipedia:
Poughkeepsie (/pəˈkɪpsi/ pə-KIP-see), officially the City of Poughkeepsie, separate from the Town of Poughkeepsie, is a city in the state of New York, United States, which is the county seat of Dutchess County. As of the 2010 census it had a population of 32,736. Poughkeepsie is in the Hudson Valley midway between New York City and Albany, and is part of the Poughkeepsie–Newburgh–Middletown Metropolitan Statistical Area (which belongs to the larger New York–Newark–Bridgeport, NY-NJ-CT-PA Combined Statistical Area). The name derives from a word in the Wappinger language, roughly U-puku-ipi-sing, meaning the reed-covered lodge by the little-water place, referring to a spring or stream feeding into the Hudson River south of the present downtown area.

Poughkeepsie is known as The Queen City of the Hudson. It was settled in the 17th century by the Dutch and became New York's second capital shortly after the American Revolution. It was chartered as a city in 1854. Major bridges in the city include the Walkway over the Hudson, a former railroad bridge (originally called the Poughkeepsie Bridge) which re-opened as a public walkway on October 3, 2009; and the Mid-Hudson Bridge, a major thoroughfare built in 1930 that carries U.S. Route 44 (concurrent with State Route 55) over the Hudson. The city of Poughkeepsie lies in New York's 18th congressional district.

Driving through Mid-Hudson Bridge to Main Street, Poughkeepsie, New York, USA

Poughkeepsie (/pəˈkɪpsi/ pə-KIP-see), officially the City of Poughkeepsie, separate from the Town of Poughkeepsie, is a city in the state of New York, United States, which is the county seat of Dutchess County. As of the 2010 census it had a population of 32,736.[4] Poughkeepsie is in the Hudson Valley midway between New York City and Albany, and is part of the New York metropolitan area.[5][6] The name derives from a word in the Wappinger language, roughly U-puku-ipi-sing,[7] meaning the reed-covered lodge by the little-water place, referring to a spring or stream feeding into the Hudson River south of the present downtown area.[8]

Poughkeepsie is known as The Queen City of the Hudson. It was settled in the 17th century by the Dutch and became New York's second capital shortly after the American Revolution. It was chartered as a city in 1854. Major bridges in the city include the Walkway over the Hudson, a former railroad bridge (originally called the Poughkeepsie Bridge) which re-opened as a public walkway on October 3, 2009; and the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Bridge, a major thoroughfare built in 1930 that carries U.S. Route 44 (concurrent with State Route 55) over the Hudson. The city of Poughkeepsie lies in New York's 18th congressional district.



Mid-Hudson Bridge

The Franklin Delano Roosevelt Mid-Hudson Bridge is a toll suspension bridge which carries US 44 and NY 55 across the Hudson River between Poughkeepsie and Highland in the state of New York. Governor and local resident Franklin D. Roosevelt and his wife Eleanor attended the opening ceremony on August 25, 1930. The bridge was renamed the Franklin D. Roosevelt Mid-Hudson Bridge in 1994 though the span is rarely referred to by its official name.

The bridge is 3,000 feet (910 m) long with a clearance of 135 feet (41 m) above the Hudson. At opening, it was the sixth-longest suspension bridge in the world. The chief engineer was Polish immigrant Ralph Modjeski, who had previously engineered the strengthening of the nearby Poughkeepsie Railroad bridge. Primary contractor was the American Bridge Company of Ambridge, Pennsylvania with steel from Carnegie. The span is unusual in that stiffening trusses were intentionally constructed on top of, not below, the deck.

Walkway over the Hudson, Poughkeepsie, NY, United States

This video shows my walk over the Hudson.

Much longer then I thought, I think I got a bit tired half way through because I simply forgot to film anything (on my phone anyway). If you do the entire walk following the map (seen early in the clip), it takes quite a long time and is mostly not that interesting (assuming you are not simply out for a walk of course). To this traveller, with hindsight, I would have turned back on the bridge and walked back to the car park. The part of the walk from the Mid-Hudson bridge to the car park (ie the second half of the walk) is particular dull. I missed out on spending time at the FDR Memorial library because of the time spent here.

That's not to knock the actual Walkway which is amazing and well worth stopping to experience...just don't walk the entire loop.

Welcome to the Poughkeepsie ♥ below is a video I created using my snapchat story (follow me @WhatTheDoost) edited on iMovies. It's my first one so please bare with me, they will get better ☺ We visited a few national historic sites that included the home of Franklin D. Roosevelt, the first presidential library dedicated to the public, FDR and Eleanor's cottage (aka Val-Kill) where she spent the remainder of her life after FDR's death fighting for economic and social justice. We also took a trip to the Vanderbilt's Mansion along the Hudson River. Our journey was wonderful, filled with history and heritage.
