25 Historic Hudson Valley Estates and Mansions With Remarkable Stories

The Hudson Valley has been home to some of New York’s most remarkable country houses for more than three centuries. Long before the Gilded Age brought railroad fortunes, elaborate gardens, and grand weekend retreats to the river, colonial landowning families were establishing farms, trading centers, and estates along its banks. The Hudson was both a transportation route and a source of wealth.

Star Dem-backer Debra Messing endorses GOP’s Bruce Blakeman for NY governor: ‘What we need’

Enter stage right. Anti-Trump “Will & Grace” actress Debra Messing is snubbing Democratic incumbent Gov. Kathy Hochul and instead backing Republican Bruce Blakeman’s gubernatorial campaign. It’s quite a sea change for Messing, who once stumped for Hillary Clinton for president and donated to far-left actress Cynthia Nixon’s campaign for governor in 2018 and has been, at least until recently, a staunch critic of Blakeman-boosting President Trump. Debra Messing and Bruce Blakeman during a fundraiser hosted by dietician Tanya Zuckerbrot in Manhattan, Thursday, Oct. 1, 2026. Blakeman Campaign But Brooklyn-native Messing, who even appears in a video with Blakeman, has complained about what she claims is a decline in her hometown’s conditions. “I am so grateful you are running.
