With a few years of good service, you would think the owner would work with you when you need an easy 20$ joint fix but nope not Phil! He told me he could "make a piece worth the same in the same amount of time it would have taken to fix a 10mm clean joint break". Considering the price was 100$ for a 15 minute job, I'm sorry, but if you wanna get overcharged and work with someone who will never budge no matter how much money you put into this mans pocket come here !!!!

A offshoot of the of the Hudson Mohawk Independent Media Center, the Sanctuary is an excellent space to see one of the movies in their current fall series. To quote the website...."The Sanctuary for Independent Media is a telecommunications production facility dedicated to community media arts, located in an historic former church at 3361 6th Avenue in north Troy, NY. The Sanctuary hosts screening, production and performance facilities, training in media production and a meeting space for artists, activists and independent media makers of all kinds." Not only does this place have a "suggested donation," to their events, they have student/low income category as well. And the 1 dollar bag of freshly popped popcorn out of the kettle is the BOMB!

The atmosphere inside is very chill and welcoming, and it was a delight to see seven classic pinball machines in the back - bring quarters! One minor disappointment was that they don't carry a lot of the beers listed on their website... yet. As of this review, you still have to go to Glens Falls for a lot of them, but our bartender told us that more would be coming soon. Pshaw, I had been looking forward to some of their stouts, though I was very satisfied with the Vanilla Porter. Bar seating is comfortable.

I have had the chicken sandwich there also which was super. The staff have always seemed very nice. It's a big space, got a lovely outdoor area. It's pub grub but a really lovely standard of food. Elevated pub grub let's say. I would come here for a date night. I think it's important to highlight all the great choices available in Troy and browns have a lovely location and a great atmosphere. Would recommend ! They do live music in the summer also. My boyfriend says their merch is awesome.

I attended their summer program in 1983 and enrolled in the following fall. It was an intense experience challenging me socially and academically. The administration, faculty, and support staff were accessible. Even the food service workers were there on difficult days to assist with a listening ear and some advice. The Chaplain's Center provided for transitional counseling and the Learning Center provided qualified peer tutors to assist students. It stressed independence but offered structure to mature safely. Troy, Albany, Saratoga, Lake George, and the ski spots were among some of my favorite distractions in the Capital District. Having a bowling alley in the Student Union provided a great stress relief nearby. Focused undergraduate research was highly valued, flexibility in fusing disciplines, and focused balancing long and short-term objectives prepared me for my unanticipated career and the lifelong pursuit of knowledge and thoroughness, responsibility toward facilitating for our community's interest, and reflecting the RPI initiative.
