The Green Island Bridge in Troy, NY was closed today. I took a short detour and stopped to take a look at the Hudson River near Brown's Brewing Company and Dinosaur Barbecue. The river has spread out far enough to flood the area.

24 Hours Later
24 hours later the water level on the Hudson River has subsided by 10 feet or more, so everything looks almost back to normal in Troy from what I could see. People are working hard to clean up Dinosaur BBQ and Brown's.
