Where is the Space that is Being Proposed?

The space is at One Monument Square where the old City Hall once stood. It is located downtown between River Street and the Hudson River. City Hall had been torn down over a decade ago. It also lies in the area of the old municipal parking garage. Crews have been removing the staircase and demolishing the parking garage. The City of Troy is almost done with preparing the site. They are moving a water pip, extending a sewer line, and demolishing the rest of the old parking garage according to Albany Business Review.
