After 8-1/2 years, we are leaving the Newburgh waterfront and relocating our studio across town just outside of the town border on Route 17K in Walden.
We've had a lot of questions about our sudden move. In summary; the MTA no longer operates the Newburgh/Beacon Ferry. I was told they were basically covering the taxes for the waterfront. Now that they are gone, our landlord does not want to pay the taxes and will be demolishing the warehouse buildings to make way for more-lucrative properties.
My partners and I always knew this day would eventually come, and while moving a functioning business is always a stressful effort, we cannot really complain. We had a great run in Newburgh, and we had a great deal on the rent too! But now it's time to get to work in the new space!
See you next week.
