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 ny. 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 ny 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!
