Public transit here sucks lol

Last monday the 412 i needed to catch came 4 minutes early when i was half a block away, so i watched it blow right by me. today i showed up 10 minutes early, so that i wouldn’t make the same mistake twice. the bus ended up being 8 minutes late and i was going to miss the connecting bus downtown i needed to catch, but that was irrelevant anyway because the 412 drive right by me anyway without stopping. the bus looked completely empty lmao. anyway, just wanting to vent i guess. anyone else rely on the bus to get around GF/surrounding areas? how do you actually make it work to get to/from work/etc?

Loud Cars and Bikes

Do police just not care about noise ordinance in this town? There are so many cars and bikes that constantly are red lining their engines and burning out all over Glens Falls and it seems like no one is ever pulled over for it. Every single day a worker at the paper plant in a truck guns his truck, burning out as he pulls down main street in S. Glens Falls going into the parking lot. It's ridiculous that people have zero decency, that's a residential neighborhood but this dude does it every single day

Progressive Catholic Parishes in the Region

Looking for recommendations of more progressive Catholic parishes in the region. My parents are new to the area. Recently they have encountered some disparaging remarks during homilies toward the LGBTQ and Jewish communities that left them uncomfortable returning to those parishes. Thanks for your suggestions.

Any chance Wheelbarator could be a source of District heating?

This monolith is omnipresent no matter where i look at the moment all they do is generate electric. It is a shame all that heat is going to waste.

Pirate radio station?

I came across a pirate radio station today playing mostly eclectic rock music on 91.3 FM which never IDs (though it does occasionally run an ad for a Queensbury flooring company, so I know it's local). Wondering if anyone else had come across it or knows more.

Hoarding Neighbor (Looking for advice on what to do)

Hello everyone. I'm looking for some advice on what to do about a situation next door to me that has gone from bad to worse. For their privacy, I will not reveal the location of this home. But I feel as if I'm running out of options on what to do. In the past year I've had to call the police on multiple occasions to report animal abuse that I've witnessed. This ended up doing nothing but make me look like a nosey neighbor. In January the Building and Zone department put a sign on their house saying that no one could enter or live in that house during that time. They continued to live there. Their backyard is so full of garbage and waste that in the summer you can smell it. They no longer have any place to let their dogs out so now they walk them through the neighborhood and refuse to clean up after them. Every yard on the block has dog poop in their yard. They have 3 or 4 dogs and they walk them a few times a day. Their garbage is constantly spilling into my yard and I have to go out there and clean it up. I've tried talking to them and they are apologetic but they don't stop what they are doing. I was just hoping that maybe someone in the area has had a similar situation and could help me find a reasonable solution. I don't not like them, but they are destroying the value of our neighborhood and something needs to be done.

Thanks!

Anybody know why all the Cement trucks are going from Cranesville block on bigboom to fort edward all night for past Week+

Curious if anybody knows whats going on in Fort Edward. For the past week or more starting around 1am several cement trucks have been going down mcintire st in Fort Edward.

Its several trucks dozens of times all night long. They are all coming from Cranesville block on big boom road.

Its strange because its below freezing and they only do it after 1am. We are wondering if there is some construction project or if they are illegally dumping somewhere.

Anybody else see it or know whats going on?

Things to do/places to go

I 18F personally live in FE but there’s no subreddit for it so I’m searching here, does anyone know anything cheap/free to do in the fort edward/hudson falls/glens falls area? I’m interested in the outdoors and things like urban exploration and hiking but I also love art, card games, and table top games like DND and magic the gathering. Any recommendations?

been living in the area for the last 21 years of my life and there’s nothing to do, it’s too boring and it’s barely even a city. i’m just disappointed to live here.

Which NY sports team do most people root for here?

I’m curious for people that live in Glens Falls which sport teams you all root for, your technically closer to NYC but are a more northern city like buffalo so for hockey and football would most people in the area cheer on the sabers or rangers / islander and for football would it be the bills or giants / jets?
