POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y. -- An affordable housing development may breathe new life into a vacant area along Main Street in Poughkeepsie that was the site of a fatal fire in 1973, according to The Poughkeepsie Journal.

A developer is proposing a mixture of affordable apartments and retail shops for the corner of Main and South Bridge streets, which has been vacant since a fatal fire more than 40 years ago, The Poughkeepsie Journal reported.
