Not to point out the obvious but it is HOT out there! We're down at the Riverfront Branch of the Yonkers Public Library today showing you the work we've done with the Hudson River Museum on excessive heat and shade structures. Stop by if you're out and about. We've got popsicles to cool you off. Big thanks to Con Edisonfor their support.
