Proctors theatre anchors the scene with broadway tours and concerts, while jay street marketplace, frog alley brewing, druthers at the harbor, and favorites like tara kitchen and aperitivo keep the dining scene lively; grab coffee at the happy cappuccino, shop the schenectady greenmarket, and stroll the harbor riverwalk or riverside park. Fitness options and the ymca sit near downtown, with the amtrak station, cdta buses, i-890 and the thruway close for commuters. Winters are snowy and cozy, summers are warm and festival-filled, and fall foliage frames the historic streets. The neighborhood draws a mix of students, professionals, and long-time residents, and is welcoming to families and pets thanks to green spaces and dog-friendly patios. Recent zillow market trends show a median asking rent in the mid-$1,000s, with most listings ranging from the low-$1,000s to the upper-$1,000s over the past few months.
