Whatever Happened to Grand Union Supermarkets?

For generations of New Yorkers, the Grand Union sign meant something familiar. Whether the store stood in a Hudson Valley shopping center, a village in the Adirondacks, or a busy suburban neighborhood, it was the place families went for the week’s groceries, a forgotten ingredient, or a quick stop on the way home. The chain became such a regular part of life across New York and the Northeast that many shoppers could scarcely imagine their communities without it.

Country star John Rich slams Hochul’s renewable energy agenda, defends NY farmers: ‘Takes away our voice’

John Rich is blasting New York Gov. Kathy Hochul over the state’s renewable energy policies , accusing her administration of silencing farmers and overriding local officials in upstate New York. The 52-year-old Big & Rich member has publicly joined local landowners, activists and officials who are challenging New York’s Office of Renewable Energy Siting (ORES) , a state agency that reviews and permits major renewable energy and transmission projects. Last month, Rich released his new country song “Dear Kathy,” which is directed at the Democratic governor, who is running for re-election . In the song, Rich speaks on behalf of farmers and landowners who are protesting large-scale solar and wind projects on upstate New York farmland , arguing that ORES has undermined local control and put family farms, rural communities and private property rights at risk. During a recent interview with Fox News Digital, Rich shared his message for Hochul, pointing to the final line of “Dear Kathy,” which asks, “Why do you hate these people so much?” John Rich is blasting New York Gov.

Whatever Happened to W.T. Grant Stores in New York?

W.T. Grant stores disappeared in 1976 after the once-enormous variety-store chain went bankrupt and liquidated its remaining locations. The company filed for protection from creditors in October 1975, but its attempt to continue operating failed. By the following spring, the familiar Grants signs were coming down across New York and the rest of the country. The collapse ended a business that had started with one Massachusetts store in 1906 and grown into a nationwide chain with more than a thousand locations.

25 Famous Hardware Stores, Lumberyards, and Home Improvement Centers in Upstate New York

Photo by Tyler A. McNeil, via Wikimedia Commons, licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0. There was a time when a home improvement project in Upstate New York began with a trip to a familiar hardware store, lumberyard, or neighborhood home center. Maybe it was a leaky pipe in a Rochester two-family house, a porch that needed new boards in the Southern Tier, or another winter spent trying to keep the snowblower working in Western New York. Before the largest warehouse chains dominated so many commercial strips, local owners, family businesses, cooperatives, and regional chains supplied the parts and advice that kept homes running.
