C.H. Evans Brewing Co. was founded in Hudson, NY in 1786, and successfully brewed thousands of barrels of beer up until it's closure during prohibition. In 1999, C.H. Evans IV brought the brewing tradition back to his family name by opening a brewery/restaurant in the historic Albany Water Pumping Station. The Albany Pump Station, erected in 1874 housed several steam-fired engines used to pump the city of Albany's drinking water from the Hudson river up to Bleeker Reservoir, better known now as Bleaker Stadium.

Merriman and Pfister is learning that their gift store at the Delmar Four Corners seems to be a win- win for the shop and the artists involved. In acquiring inventory for the store, efforts focus on finding smaller production vendors or those who may be looking at the ordinary in a different light. Sometimes it’s the Artist’s Story that is the draw for the buyers. Other times, a suggestion from someone will spur an interest in obtaining a product. And very often, it’s the artistic piece itself and its unusual character that drives the pursuit of the acquisition.
