Newburgh
I'm glad to see someone is taking an interest in that article, but I'd like to remind you that things do need to be sourced (though there's not much in that history narrative that taking a printout of the article and sitting in the history room of the Newburgh Free Library for a day or so wouldn't solve). I do distinctly recall everyone (when I covered the city as a reporter 1997-1999) talking about urban renewal as an early 1970s thing, though they may have been referring to what they were about to do to replace what they had torn down at that point.

Oh, and I know it was sort of incongruous where it was, but the bricks on Liberty Street are still the original ones. Daniel Case 03:07, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi Daniel, thanks for the note. This was my very first wiki edit of any kind so bear with me. I grew up in Newburgh but have not lived there since around 1985. I live in the Boston area now. I do visit now and then. There are probably 2 or 3 books on the history of Newburgh which I have, so I will get the source in there. The bricks of Liberty street are of note it's true. There is a lot of note which is not in the article I do intend to do more work on it. --Avenueb 02:03, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
