Hudson, NY

united states

Hudson sits on the Hudson River about two hours north of NYC, transformed from a whaling port into an antiques hub. Take I-87 north to I-90 west, then Route 9G south, or use the scenic Taconic Parkway to Route 23 west. The city climbs hills above the river with Catskill Mountain views. Warren Street runs exactly one mile from river to courthouse, packed with 60+ antique shops in original 19th-century buildings.
