Remodeling in Cohoes
Cohoes is a small city with a long industrial history — the Cohoes Falls and the surrounding mills shaped its development from the early 19th century through the mid-20th, and the housing stock reflects that history. The dominant form is the multi-family mill worker's house: two-family and three-family buildings on narrow lots, with kitchens that were never generously proportioned and bathrooms that were added as afterthoughts. Working in Cohoes requires thinking small: small kitchens that need to be organized rather than expanded, bathrooms where you're replacing everything in a space the size of a closet. We are good at this. The city also has a stock of larger single-family homes in the better neighborhoods, particularly around Manor Avenue, which offer more conventional renovation scope.
