The region was settled in the 17th century by Dutch settlers and charted as a city in 1854. Poughkeepsie is actually two different places. The city of Poughkeepsie and the town of Poughkeepsie. Residents generally refer to the two cities as the same place and combined; they have approximately 75,000 people.

Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park

The Walkway Over the Hudson is a State Historical Park, which was originally a railway bridge over the Hudson River and built-in 1889. The bridge was taken out of service in 1974 and joined the National Register of Historic Places in 1979. The bridge was designated and upgraded in 2009 as the Walkway Over the Hudson State Historic Park. The bridge is extremely popular, hosting almost 600,000 visitors in 2017. It is the world's second-longest pedestrian footbridge – 6768 feet.

The footbridge connects the Hudson Valley Rail Trail to the Dutchess Rail Trail. The Walkway is part of the New York State Park System, opens at 7 am, and closes at dusk. There is a parking charge, and there are restrooms available at each end of the Walkway. Cyclists and walkers are welcome, and the Walkway is relatively wheelchair-free, and dogs must be kept on a leash.

The Poughkeepsie Waterfront Market

The Poughkeepsie Waterfront Market features fresh farm vegetables, meat, fruit, poultry, eggs, maple products, and baked goods. In addition to prepared food vendors, there are also local artisans selling hand-crafted items. The Poughkeepsie Waterfront Market is located in the Pavilion on 75N Water St., Poughkeepsie. It will be open on Monday afternoons from 3 pm to 6:30 pm for the 2021 market season.

The Mid-Hudson Children's Museum is also open along the Poughkeepsie Waterfront and has helped focus on bringing fresh fruit and food to city residents and families. The Poughkeepsie Waterfront Market is a certified SNAP Market and participates in the Farmers Market Nutrition Programs (WIC).

Mold Inspections, Remediation, and Removal in High Humidity Areas

Many bathrooms are poorly ventilated and, combined with warm moist air, provide the perfect conditions for mold infestations to form. The bathroom may not be equipped with an exhaust fan, or residents forget to open a window while taking a shower. Mold can appear on ceilings inside on the top of the shower and other areas of the bathroom.

Mold removal must be accomplished carefully in Poughkeepsie homes to avoid releasing spores into the air. Plastic containment sheets may be required to prevent mold from spreading to uncontaminated areas.

Once we establish containment, we focus on mold removal:

• We remove mold from Porous materials 
• HEPA vacuuming or detergent solutions are used on nonporous materials.
• Heavy concentrations may require removal if structural integrity is compromised.
