I stumbled on this website by accident looking for the Palace Diner, which was located at the bottom of Hoosick St, on River St. The Palace Theatre, Papermakers Hall, was ,located on the south west corner of Hoosick St & Fifth Ave, I registered for the Armory Little League in the 1950’s & 60’s. It was also a stop for the old Fifth Ave bus line. I walked the Hoosick St, Fifth, Sixth, & Seventh Ave areas many times as a kid – if you happen to have any old pictures of those areas I’d be interested in seeing them. I remember when the North South arterial was supposed to happen (now I787) & the powers to be demolished a lot of houses on 8th St, 7th Ave, & 6th Ave…. prior to the Troy Atrium………
