A neighborhood shop carrying modern and classic home goods, accessories, stationery, natural apothecary, and gifts with an emphasis on quality and design.
Alright, two lifelong residents of the Capital Region have become the new owners of a gift and home goods shop in downtown Albany. Cassie Hudson takes a shopping and this week's off the beaten path. So, it's a historic location and a historic building. Fort Orange General Store in Albany is ushering in a new chapter. I was scrolling through, kind of mindless, saw that Fort Orange went for sale. I screenjotted it and texted it to my fiancu00e9 and said, we need to buy this. Last year, Erica Cabello and her partner Joe signing on as the new owners. The Albany native wears many hats. She owns a seriously spotless green cleaning company. Those are toilet bombs. Oh, whoa, those smell. And is an art teacher at Albany High School. It's always been a dream of mine to own a store, especially in Albany. Albany is my home city. I grew up here, went to school here, never left. From wall to wall, you'll find home goods and handmade gifts from up and coming designers, artists and small companies. When it comes to the best selling items, it's not what, but rather who. Denver is the best seller. Yeah. I think it's just such a unique part of our city and I mean, where else can you find a dog sitting on top of a building? In many ways, she says the shop has become a love letter to her hometown. If you'ready to come shopping here at Fort Orange General Store, they are open seven days a week for hours of operation.
