Nyack

We woke up on Sunday morning to find a clear, sunny day. First up was the Nyack ACADA (Art, Craft & Antiques Dealers Association) Street Fair, which is held on Sundays 3 times/year. The downtown area is filled with stalls selling all kinds of arts, crafts and food.




Nyack Library--beautiful brick building covered with ivy.


Nyack is the birthplace of Edward Hopper. This is his childhood home.

Another notable home in Nyack is that of Helen Hays. Her home was more difficult to find and was hidden behind a tall barrier. She is one of 12 people who have won an EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar & Tony). Amazing!


The Nyack Brook served as a landmark on the Underground Railroad.
