Colonie Center
Located in the heart of New York’s Capital Region, visitors enjoy the convenience and selection of Colonie Center for shopping, dining, and entertainment. The center is just 5 minutes from the Albany International Airport and is easily accessible from I-87 and I-90 (NY Thruway). Anchored by Whole Foods, Boscov’s and Macy’s, the center has many stores that are unique to the market—from the L.L. Bean retail store to the only P.F. Chang’s China Bistro in the Capital Region. Our center-wide renovation added a two-story fireplace, a family lounge and the DeNooyer Play Park in center court. Plan a night out at the 13-screen Regal digital cinema or At The Pier Arcade. Colonie Center is dog-friendly! Your leashed, well-behaved pups are welcome in the common areas and select stores!
