Gore Vidal’s reaction to the news of Truman Capote’s death in 1984 is well known. “Good career move,” the writer said.

Hudson was originally established in 1662 by Dutch settlers, before being sold in 1783 to a pod of whalers from Nantucket—and it was the latter who laid the foundations of the city you see today, building the famous two-story brick or clapboard structures that line Warren Street. After becoming a shipping hub in the late 18th century, it quickly became a destination for crafts (a tradition that continues to this day); then, during the 1900s, Hudson descended into an era of vice as gambling and prostitution boomed. The town began to fade from its former glories, only being revived in recent decades by artists, makers, restauranteurs, and shopkeepers—and now, an influx of creative city folk looking for greener pastures and a more peaceful lifestyle.
Of course, Hudson’s popularity also lies in its accessibility from New York City on the Amtrak. It’s the busiest stop on its route—and, in this…
