New Albany is a state of mind … but whose? Since 2004, we’ve been observing the contemporary scene in this slowly awakening old river town. If it’s true that a pre-digital stopped clock is right twice a day, when will New Albany learn to tell time?

Look, it's another new municipal logo -- we're walkable now!
Because making this place walkable might require lifting a pinky every now and then.
You paid good tax payer money for the walks on West St many years ago and they look like crap. There are raised sections, separated sections, broken sections... bottom line they look horrible and are completely unsafe for walking or riding a bike. The terrain is inconsistent and your contractor dug out my front yard and driveway and never repaired it properly. Now my driveway is washing away and it will cost me, the homeowner thousands of dollars to have it restored to it's former condition. So far I have lost two front bumpers on this driveway, thanks to your beautification project. Also theft is up in this neighborhood since it is now accessible to anyone and everyone. Oh, and thanks for making the road wider, providing a throughway for the school bus train.
