RE: The depressed Mohawk Valley (Erie Canal) in New York State in PHOTOS and commentary. RECOVERY? Hardly.
Nice post - didn't realize that parts of New York state have been hit this bad over the years as well. Reminds me a lot of what I saw in eastern Massachusetts as well in cities like Fall River and New Bedford. Unfortunately there are towns and small cities scattered throughout the northern states that once upon a time were industrial strengths for our great country that have fallen on rough scenes like the pictures you shared above.
thanks...this part of NY was the carpet,shitmaking (arrow, etc.) capital of the world..even GE! A disaster..thanks..kind of like Western Pa. and steel.
