“Temple of the mundane, a strip mall sprawled beneath the ether's watchful gaze, the asphalt garden hedged by bushes of burning neon, where souls come to wander-The pilgrim garbed in the plain cloth of the everyman steps upon hallowed pavement: each store a shrine; each transaction, a ritual. The sacred reveals itself in the abundant profane.Middle aged white women gather in the Talbots to supplicate that they should receive raiments to reflect the riotous joy of living. Chipotle wafts a fragrant offering to the heavens, returning in molecules to the earth's bounty and the hands that shape it into sustenance. Lo, Pottery Barn, where you will find the finest cribs for your begotten and curtains to let in the light, made in the image of the artistry that shapes the mundane into the magnificent.In the fluorescence, under the hum of prophecies, the pilgrim beholds a revelation: that the divine is not sequestered in the temples, but walks among us in places of commerce and communion, whispering in the rustle of plastic bags, in the soft sigh of satisfaction, in the silent prayers of those who seek solace in the aisles of plenty.And as the sun sets, casting long shadows across the parking lot, the strip mall transforms into a mundane mirage fading into sacred darkness. The pilgrim departs, carrying a profound truth, knowing holy ground is everywhere underfoot, that the divine mystery enfolds all of existence in its embrace.”
“Love this Price Chopper and have been here many times during the last 20 years. The specialty prepared foods are fantastic and I go often for a quick pick up of lunch when Im working. Their bakery and seafood is fantastic! I love the sushi they have for sale. Its freshly made and the only place I trust that I won't get sick from the sushi and I never have.”
“I had actually gone to market 32 for some groceries, Store was clean and the people where good. I know I won't be shopping there any time soon. They revamp the store to carry off itemsIt was once a good place to shop .I will start going to the other 3 competitionTo see who can make my day .Market 32 is for like the Rich and famous except there isn't that many big wallets in that area .”
“A good offering of stores including Sam's Club, Hannaford and Home Depot.
The parking lots and connecting roads are dangerous as drivers use them as a shortcut. Vegetation in some areas obstruct line of sight for drivers in some areas”
“Excellent selection massive inventory I have been to both Latham and glenville locations excellent customer service friendly courteous knowledgeable quick efficient stores are clean organized returns are no problem with receipt I love shopping at both locations highly recommend them awesome ?”

131 Colonie Center, Albany“Not a bad mall, except the parking is terrible. There's never any reasonably close spots, ever. If you're handicap, don't bother trying. If you do go, it's not bad inside. Nice selection of stores and restaurants. There's even a post office. Also, they have a Whole Paycheck, uhh, I mean Whole Foods. I love Whole Foods, but they are pricey. At least the parking down by them is ok. The Barnes and Noble is pretty nice as well, but what bookstore isn't?”
“I love Target. They're great at bringing things to the car, and letting me return things. My only beef...and it's a big one...is that you can't return their bags! They're not recyclable, not strong and I don't want the. I'm ready to wallpaper a room with them lol.”
“2 burgers 2 fries a milkshake and sprite. $42.00 to me that is outrageous..next time I will do the market32 burger meat..some Alexa rosemary fries and 2 liter of sprite 1 pint of vanilla ice cream and qt of milk $20.00”
“Love this plaza for the variety of stores I like shopping at. Always enjoy going and seeing what's available and getting some good deals. Highly recommend visiting.”
“I shop at Staples on this trip. I have used many stores in this mall like empire liquors and BJ's wholesale club. It's a nice place because they were a lot of different stores to choose from.”
“I don't like the options the plaza offers with the variety of shops, fast food and services in the area. The main reason I stop in the plaza is to pickup grocery items at Market 32 and then to stop up the road at Walmart for anything I missed. There are a variety of fast food places to stop at near the plaza while running errands before heading home. I rarely use the services like the nail salon offered in the plaza but I like that goodwill is located here for people who would like to donate items. I sometimes stop at the Dollar Tree for craft supplies and party related items after leaving my dr.'s or dentist appoint on the same road.”

1770 Central Ave, Albany“They had a replacement sparkplug for my snowblower. I had a short wait as the only person working there when I got there was helping someone over the phone, and two more calls came in. Easy parking. Easy access off Rt 5.”
“This is a small shopping plaza.could be better but they have food, clothing stores,a bank,doctors and a few different food services.can definitely use a grocery store.they did have 1 but it's no longer there.”
“Great spot with many different businesses such as a supermarket, restaurants, a gym and a Tractor Supply. The only real downside is trying to leave the plaza via the 9W entrance/exit as traffic is generally not cooperative. I once sat there for almost 10 minutes because traffic was so congested and no one will stop to let you out. So I do suggest using the alternate entrance/exit down by the Tractor Supply end of the plaza.”
“I only stopped in at the Price chopper grocery store here. I've gone to this grocery store many times. It's nearby many places that I do business with. Nice place, the workers are courteous and friendly.”
“Lots of stores, restaurants and great selections and a great food court. A great place to walk. They are always adding new stores and new places to eat. In addition to the food court, the have many stand-alone eateries as well, including The Standard, Maggie McFly's, and Aloha Crab, among others!”
“So many good stores! Especially target. Lots are always clean and plenty of parking. People do fly through here so just be cautious! You can shop and snack all in one place :)”
