Hudson Gotham Day Visit

On Saturday, Fred and I took the Amtrak to Hudson to celebrate the opening of Gotham’s newest location. It is an absolutely civilized experience taking the Amtrak out of the new Moynihan station. There are plenty of options, it is clean and friendly, and you feel good passing through there compared to the hellhole we called Penn Station.

We went up, met the team, checked out the town, and then grabbed a train back. It felt European. We need Amtrak-type trains to go out to every area outside of NYC. The transportation in our country is in desperate need of more upgrades. Those upgrades will make an impact on the environment, and traffic. I could have driven but why do I need to sit in traffic and a car for more than two hours when I can take the train?

Hudson is beautiful, and we are thrilled to be a new addition to the community. We will start doing fun events to bring people together.

We got on the train that rides through a scenic route that can be mesmerizing, and two hours later, we were back in the city. We walked through the station, crossed over to the Hudson Yards, walked the Highline, walked into the ugliest mall in the world from developers that missed out on an opportunity, and had dinner. Except for being in Hudson Yards, it was a perfect day and evening. It was one of those nights where it hits me again and again how much I love New York.
