UPTOWNflavor

In 1993:

• America was virtually a cell phone-free world (pagers and pay phones were popular)
• Gas cost $1.04 a gallon
• Men Are From Mars, Women are from Venus was a best-seller
• Mike Piazza was nominated the National League’s “Rookie of the Year”
• The Oscar went to the movie Schindler’s List
• The Number One song of the year was “I Will Always Love You,” by Whitney Houston
• Bill Clinton was inaugurated as the 42nd President of the United States
• Mario Cuomo was governor and he brokered the deal for Riverbank State Park.

A grand experiment in urban living that evolved, lived up to its promise, and
more, Riverbank State Park continues to offer sweeping river views and plenty of affordable recreation options 15 years later.

If you haven’t been to Riverbank State Park, make it point to visit this summer.
