So strange to see this on HN, this place is 10 minutes down the road from me. It’s about 2 minutes away from IBM’s big quantum computing facility, too. They host great events, and on nice days you can just go and explore or sit. I don’t have much of a “tech angle” to add, except that I find it so beneficial to find places like this to get out of my office and away from the screen and just ~think~ in a different and beautiful place.

Having lived at worked in Poughkeepsie at IBM for several years found it strange to see it on HN as well. I've since moved to Massachusetts but something my wife and I really miss about the Hudson Valley are all of the historic sites along the river (Locust Grove, FDR's house, Vanderbilt mansion, Mills mansion, Olana, etc.) that were often free and were great places to just go sit and visit, as you say.
