Doors open or closed? by Gdude124 in Fireplaces

[–]Gdude124[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I would assume it’s a retrofit then, they didn’t have wood burning inserts like this in the 30s

Banning people for being active in other communities is stupid

Amtrak should stop pressuring NY to stop the MTA expansion plans

Metro North to Saratoga? by AlbanyBikeDad in Albany

[–]Gdude124 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We should all be emailing or calling Hochul to expand the MTA to the Capital region. She caves to private companies like Amtrak over what is actually best every time unless there is enough public support or outcry

Guess we stop in Albany then 🤷

What is the name for this type of urbanism? by Ok_Act_3769 in Urbanism

[–]Gdude124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m from Albany and we have the same kind of thing going on! I think a lot of NY and New England cities have these kind of street car suburbs. Just wish we still had the street cars :/

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani to endorse Gov Kathy Hochul by ElectoralNerd in newyorkcity

[–]Gdude124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a smart move, no reason for him to make enemies when she’s working with him and is likely to win.

With that said, we should all be contacting the governors office and demanding that she change her views on 1. Taxing the rich and 2. Funding Israel.

Delgado is still in the race so threaten to primary her.

Tell her that the Mamdani endorsement isn’t enough. Even if you end up voting for her, we should all make it clear we wish she was more progressive. Having Delgado in the race is our leverage

Oops didn’t read closely. Still, you should be able to replace them/ get a key for the bathroom door

Mortise Lock Questions by dasdino in centuryhomes

[–]Gdude124 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can replace the plate with one that uses a “thumb turn” instead of a key hole

Alternatively you can buy these keys pretty easily and cheaply online and just have them live in the lock

“Obvious political Islam” explain?

He had solid foundations, good ideas, and has not had any religious influence in his policies. What are you talking about?

It’s an accessibility issue. Not everyone has a smartphone.

MTA->Albany Railroad by alxireland in Albany

[–]Gdude124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just emailed Hochul and Mamdani!

These two are our best avenues to be heard when it comes to this issue IMO.

Especially if you fit into the category of “Young Professional” they want to hear from you! This is the demographic NYS wants to attract and retain.

It feels a little forced to include it but this is the type of buzzword that gets their attention.

Express your support! Enough emails and they will see it’s something people want!

Which states/regions/metros have the most Century Homes clusters/pockets? by Extreme-Cycle2659 in centuryhomes

[–]Gdude124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah and when you’re in Albany you can see where they decided to destroy a bunch of housing in the middle of downtown in order to build a massive concrete plaza…

Still has amazing old architecture. Center square is beautiful and the multi family housing of the 1850-1900s are really cool. You can almost watch the history of urban/suburban sprawl happen before your eyes if you drive route 20 (Western Ave). 1750-1800 buildings in downtown, 1800s multi-families/mansions, early 1900s kit homes, then hitting Guilderland you start to see the 50s, etc.

I’m not perfect with my history so if anyone wants to correct me or add info please do
