Welcome to Troy Story
from Troy Story: A Podcast for the Collar City · host John Salka
For more than 200 years, the City of Troy has occupied a seven mile stretch along the eastern banks of the historic Hudson River. Once an industrial powerhouse, the Collar City later fell on hard times, suffering for decades through a rapidly shrinking population, urban renewal, and, yes, even local government corruption and financial mismanagement. However, Troy’s fortunes are on the rise again, the latest chapter in Troy’s story of rebirth and renewal. Today, that story is still being written. So, how did we get here? Where are we going as a city and community? And who are the people shaping our future? Join host John Salka for in-depth conversations that capture the living history of Troy with people who shaped it, helping to explore our past, present and future and get a better understanding of our shared story as an upstate city on the rise once again.
