LOCAL STREETS

Start with Downtown

New York’s capital brings government landmarks together with Lark Street kitchens, small galleries and the streets above the Hudson River.

Start around State Street and Broadway, then leave time for the walk uphill toward the Capitol. Begin at the Albany Institute of History & Art and check current exhibits and museum hours. Make Lark Street a separate stop for a cafe or local shop.

Leave yourself a little room.

Pick a starting point and build from there. Confirm opening hours, access and reservations with the venue; this guide does not imply availability or an affiliation with the places mentioned.
