GERALD D. JENNINGS, MAYOR, CITY OF ALBANY


Welcome to downtown Albany! Our Capital City is rich with
history, activities and events for people of all ages. In addition to
its vibrant cultural and entertainment attractions, Albany is the
region’s center of business and home to our State’s leaders.
Discover all that Albany has to offer. I encourage you to explore the
City, whether it is by taking a walking tour, going for a ride on a
trolley, or enjoying a carriage ride.
Visit the riverfront, enjoy the many restaurants, see a movie or show at the newly restored
Palace Theatre or view the architecture of our historic neighborhoods. Whether you seek a
sporting event, concert, theatrical production or active nightlife, Albany will welcome you
at every corner.
Albany’s expanding skyline is symbolic of the resurgence of our exciting City. Over the
last few years, the skyline has grown to include newly constructed state and private office
buildings, as well as hotels, residential units, first-rate restaurants and cafes.
Thank you for visiting. Be sure to take advantage of all our City has to offer. On behalf of
the citizens of Albany, I am happy to welcome you to our “All-America City.”
Sincerely,

Mayor Gerald D. Jennings


Albany, New York

GEORGETTE STEFFENS, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR


It is my pleasure to welcome you to downtown Albany,
New York’s Capital City. World class dining, renowned hotels,
state of the art entertainment venues, the seat of government,
and Fortune 500 Companies are all present within the
50 block radius of the Downtown Albany Business
Improvement District’s (BID) boundaries.
Labeled Albany’s newest neighborhood, Downtown residential
units continue to experience a 97% occupancy rate, with new
projects under construction and in development. These new residents are changing the
landscape of our District, creating a vibrant 24/7 city.
I invite you to stay connected with the BID through our numerous social media
channels: Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and our newest addition Instagram. Visit our
website at downtownalbany.org to keep apprised of news and events. And sign up for
our weekly e-newsletter that outlines specials at our restaurants and retailers, as well as
upcoming events.
Come and experience all that Downtown has to offer. Whether Day Life or Night Life,
Downtown Albany is the Good Life.
Sincerely,

Georgette Steffens
