Lost: Brooches after Albany event

I was at a small reception on the mezzanine by the Empire State Plaza in Albany around 4:45 p.m. on Tuesday when I realized my Brooches were missing from the clutch I left on the chair. They’re a pair of vintage pins—one with a tiny emerald, the other with a pearl—and they’ve been with me through family gatherings for years. Losing them feels personal; they’re reminders of my grandmother. If you found them near State Street or around the Capitol area, I’d be grateful to have them back.

LOST: two microwaves missing in Albany, NY

On Monday around 7:15 AM, I was moving two microwaves into my apartment on Clinton Avenue in Albany when I stepped out for a moment after unloading groceries. When I returned to the porch, they were gone from the curb near the Empire State Plaza entrance. The microwaves were bulky, in a sturdy wooden crate with the packing strap still attached. I keep replaying the moment—they were just there a moment ago, and now they're gone. I rely on those appliances daily, and the idea of someone taking them is unsettling. If anyone spotted them near the Empire State Plaza or along Clinton Avenue, please let me know through the site.

Gray tote bag with pink lining

Lost my gray canvas tote bag yesterday around 6pm near the Capitol on State Street in downtown Albany. It's a medium-sized bag with a bright pink lining and a black fabric strap that’s a bit frayed near the buckle, and there’s a small enamel fox pin on the strap. Inside, I keep initials 'P.P.' embroidered in the inner pocket, plus a receipt from a cafe on Lark Street and a laminated photo of my grandmother. This bag means a lot to me and I’d be grateful to have it back. If you found it, email [email protected] so we can arrange a pickup near the Capitol or a nearby cafe.

Navy blue quilted duvet cover set

Yesterday around 3pm I realized my navy blue queen-size quilted duvet cover set was gone. I had been at the Empire State Plaza in downtown Albany, near the Capitol steps at the junction of Washington Ave and State Street, and I must have left it behind. It’s a three-piece set from Linens & Luxe: duvet cover plus two matching pillow shams, deep navy with a subtle quilted diamond pattern. There’s a small pulled thread along the bottom left corner and a faint coffee stain on the inside flap, really distinguishing it. It was a gift from my grandmother, so it means a lot to me and I’d be grateful to get it back.

Blue LEGO Creator set found near Albany Library

I found a blue LEGO Creator 3-in-1 box this afternoon around 3:15pm behind the Albany Public Library on New Scotland Avenue. The box is bright blue with a photo of a small city model on the front, and a few loose bricks spilled out nearby. It looks mostly complete—there's a small sticker sheet peeking from under the lid and a distinctive red 2x2 brick that stands out. The set is in good condition, just a bit dusty from sitting on the ground. It seems like it might belong to a kid who misplaced it during a visit, and I’d love to see it back with its owner.

Black Bose SoundLink Mini II with red protective case

I lost my black Bose SoundLink Mini II yesterday around 3pm near the Albany Public Library on Washington Ave. It was tucked inside a small black fabric pouch with a bright red silicone protective case wrapped around it. The speaker has a tiny scratch along the bottom edge, and there’s a tiny heart sticker on the back of the case. The charging cable is a short white USB cable tucked inside the pouch. It was a gift from my sister, so it’s sentimental and I really need it back.
