Hudson is the Brooklyn-on-the-Hudson river town — a mile of antiques on Warren Street, restored Victorian brick, the Basilica events space at the south end. Sleep at Rivertown Lodge (a 1920s cinema converted into 36 rooms with a farm-to-table tavern by chef Efrén Hernández, Esquire's 2024 Rising Star) or The Maker (an art-and-design hotel a block off Warren). Day one: lunch at Le Perche (French wood-fired bistro), an afternoon antiquing the south-Warren shops, dinner at Via Cassia (the Italian-Sicilian replacement for Ca'Mea, which closed January 2024). Day two: brunch at Spotty Dog Books & Ale, a slow walk down to Wm Farmer & Sons general store, and the train back to NYC from the Hudson station. Amtrak Hudson is 2 hours from Penn Station; Albany (ALB) is 30 minutes by car.
