Finally some good news when it comes to the closings of local Hudson Valley businesses. Dutchess county residents can breathe a sigh of relief that this community favorite isn't going anywhere, despite what you may have heard.

Businesses Closing in the Hudson Valley, NY

Local businesses have been struggling lately, and while many local communities have banded together to help save their favorite stores and restaurants, many have still needed to shutter their doors. Recently the Rainbow Drive-In in Port Ewen announced they were closing, and Hudson's Ribs & Fish in Fishkill has also shared the news that their 32-year run was coming to an end. Luckily for Hopewell Junction residents, however, at least one neighborhood gem isn't going anywhere.
