FOUND: Felines found near Dock Street, Plattsburgh
Around 9:30 p.m. on Monday, I saw three cats tucked by a lamppost near Dock Street by the Plattsburgh Ferry Terminal. One is a calico with a blue collar, another gray tabby, and a sleek orange cat with a white chest. They crouched together as if waiting for someone to come looking. They seemed well-fed but a little startled, and I kept an eye on them until the area cleared. I hope this helps bring those little ones back to their home.
Lost Wall Art, Plattsburgh-Adirondacks, NY
I was at the Strand Center for the Arts on Brinkerhoff Street around 7:30 p.m. on Friday for a quick post-event photo, and I realized my wall art wasn't in the back seat anymore. It's a framed piece, about 18 by 24 inches, with a soft blue background and a gold pattern, and it's the only thing I kept from my late grandmother. I retraced my steps from Market Street to the waterfront by Lake Champlain, but I didn't find it. I’m hoping a neighbor or passerby found it and tucked it somewhere safe. If you found a framed wall art matching a blue-and-gold motif, please help.
Found travel adapters near Champlain Centre mall
On Friday at 6:15 PM, I found a small zippered pouch with travel adapters on the ground outside the Champlain Centre mall's south entrance in Plattsburgh-Adirondacks. The pouch contained a jumble of plugs from different countries and a frayed label that looked like a name, unreadable from a distance. It reminded me how travel can scatter little essentials in a hurry, and how easy it is to overlook them in the rush to catch a ride or a bus. I felt a twinge of relief for the owner, imagining them realizing their adapters are missing after a long day of flights. I am listing them here in the hope that the rightful owner will see this and recognize their gear.
Found dog collars near Plattsburgh City Park
This afternoon, around 3:15 PM, I was walking near City Park in Plattsburgh when I spotted a small cluster of dog collars on the grass by a bench along City Park Drive. There were three collars: a red nylon one, a blue reflective one, and a worn brown leather one. They looked forgotten and there wasn't a dog nearby, so I picked them up and held onto them in case someone is missing their pet. I checked the surrounding area, calling out and asking nearby pedestrians, but no owner appeared. If these belong to you, know they’re safe with me and I’ll keep them by the bench near the fountain until they’re claimed.
Lost sheet music in Plattsburgh-Adirondacks, NY.
I'm Mason Reed. I was at the Plattsburgh Public Library reading room around 7:25 PM on Tuesday after a long practice, and I discovered my folder of original sheet music missing from the table. The bundle contains four pages of handwritten markings for a chamber piece, bound in a blue binder with a faded stamp on the cover. The music is part of my recital program next week, so this loss stings a lot—the notes are etched in my muscle memory. If someone picked it up by mistake, I'd be grateful to have it back where it belongs, and I'll replace any copies.
Lost: Keyboards near Strand Center for the Arts, Plattsburgh
After a late rehearsal at the Strand Center for the Arts in downtown Plattsburgh on Tuesday around 7:45 PM, I realized my two keyboards were missing from the side room by the stage. They’re in a black soft case with a few scratches and a sticker that says 'Northwind' across the zipper. I played the keyboards for my students and for local gigs, and losing them feels like losing a part of my daily voice. If you see them, please know how much they mean to me—their sound is tied to the music I bring to the Adirondacks.
Lost driver's license in Plattsburgh-Adirondacks
I realized my driver's license was missing at 9:10 a.m. Thursday after a coffee run on Oak Street in Plattsburgh. I’d walked from a cafe toward the riverfront, through Broad Street and up toward Champlain Centre, and I must have dropped it somewhere along that route. It’s a New York license with my photo and name, and losing it has me worried about travel and errands this week.
LOST Gym Bags near SUNY Plattsburgh gym, Plattsburgh-Adirondacks, NY.
At 6:45 p.m. last Tuesday, I left the SUNY Plattsburgh gym after a cardio class and realized my gym bags were missing from the rack near the front desk. One bag is gray with a red zipper and a neon-yellow carabiner; the other is black with a white stripe. I retraced my steps through the lobby and out toward Clinton Street, asking staff and a couple of other gym-goers, but no one saw anything. I’m worried about the clothes and gear inside, and I’m hoping someone who picked them up kept them safe near the Plattsburgh YMCA or the park across Clinton Street.
Lost stainless toasters near Plattsburgh Amtrak Station
I realized around 7:45 pm last Tuesday that my two stainless-steel toasters were missing from the kitchen counter in my apartment near the Plattsburgh Amtrak Station. The cords were tangled and the little crumb tray still held a faint hint of butter and cinnamon from breakfast. I left them on the edge of the island after a rushed dinner, and I’ve replayed every step through my head since then. It feels silly, but those toasters were part of our morning ritual, and their absence makes the kitchen feel empty. If someone picked them up by mistake, I’d be grateful to have them back where they belong.
LOST: Wild and Domestic by Cumberland Bay Trailhead
I was hiking the Adirondacks near Plattsburgh on Friday at about 7:45 PM when the paperback Wild and Domestic slipped from my pack as I paused to take in a view by the Cumberland Bay trailhead. I turned around to retrace my steps, but the light was fading and the path grew quiet. The book is worn, with a dog-eared page and a sticker from a previous trip, and I’m hoping someone picked it up to keep it safe. If you found it, I’d appreciate a note so I can get it back home.
Found: Travel Visas near Plattsburgh Amtrak
I found a folder labeled Travel Visas yesterday at 4:15 PM near the Plattsburgh Amtrak station, along the riverfront. The brown leather cover was scuffed, and a few visa pages peeked out between the pages. It hit me how easily a trip can be upended by a missing document, and I felt a mix of concern and responsibility as I held onto it. I’m hopeful the owner will see this and claim their papers soon, and that the trip plans can still go ahead.
Found Holiday Decorations in Plattsburgh-Adirondacks
I was walking along the Plattsburgh waterfront near the Champlain Centre Mall entrance in Plattsburgh-Adirondacks, New York, around 7:20 p.m. on Sunday when I spotted a plastic tote with holiday decorations tucked behind a bench near the Adirondack-styled street lamps. The bundle included a string of multicolor lights, a wreath, and a few ornaments still in their plastic wrap. It looked like someone had been decorating for the season and forgot to grab them on the way out. I gathered them and left a note here so the owner can find them. I hope they’re reunited with their decorations soon.
Blue plush dragon toy with orange wings
I lost my blue plush dragon toy yesterday around 3pm near the Champlain Centre Mall entrance on Market Street in Plattsburgh, within the Plattsburgh-Adirondacks area. It's a soft, sky-blue dragon about 18 inches tall, with bright orange satin wings and a tiny green star stitched on its left paw. The fabric is a bit worn, and there's a small fade on the belly where the fur is thinner. It was a gift from grandma, and my daughter adores it—it's really sentimental to us, especially during bedtime. If you happened to find it, please drop me a message; I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back for our little one.
Grey Nike hoodie with mountain patch, size M
I lost my grey Nike hoodie, size M, a casual fleece with a small embroidered mountain patch on the left chest. It's a bit worn from daily use—cuffs frayed and the drawstring on the hood is a tad loose, plus there's a coffee stain on the right sleeve. I last had it yesterday around 3pm outside the Plattsburgh Public Library on Court Street before I ran into a rain shower; I must have taken it off while I waited for the bus. This hoodie has sentimental value; it was a gift from my sister after I started college, and I really need it back.
Navy blue North Face parka with fur hood
I lost my navy blue North Face parka with a faux-fur hood yesterday around 3pm near the Plattsburgh Public Library on Court Street. It's a size large, a bit worn from daily use, and has a lavender drawstring bag tucked in the chest pocket. The left sleeve has a small faded maple leaf patch, and the inside lining is charcoal gray with a faint grid pattern. It was a gift from my sister and it means a lot to me—it's the one jacket I wear for work trips and the winter walks along the Saranac River. If someone happened to find it, please email [email protected]; I’d really appreciate getting it back.
