Barnes and Noble can get expensive(I know, I read alot and I will spend money to do it)----what is the base of consumers downtown???

college kids---cant afford it
homeless---self explanatory
gang bangers---self explanatory
store owners---maybe unless they like to shop in their own towns(saratoga, cliftonpark etc)

anyone have stock in the company??

Quoted from 210
I think saying "Downtown is a dump" is a very strong statement...I agree with a lot of you other points.  However, there are quite a few venues I enjoy spending time at Downtown (some of them weekly.)

Things are certainly being cleaned up.  Are they spotless?  Certainly not.  Do I (or any any honest person) agree wholly with the matter in which it is being done?  Certainly not.  But "dump" is not the word I would use to describe it.
It's about as close to a dump as you can get. Sorry, but there is NOTHING that would make me take the chance of getting mugged or rapped down town...or for that matter anywhere in the city of schenectady. Especially at night. Most people drive through the city of schenectady with their doors locked.
