Center Square Association (CSA), founded in 1958, is the oldest neighborhood association in Albany. Its mission is to promote the quality of residential living and to preserve its historic 19th century housing stock.
Membership in CSA is available to all neighborhood residents — homeowners and tenants.
CSAs activities are carried out by a Board of Directors, comprised of five elected officers and the chairpersons of committees. Officers are elected at CSA’s annual meeting in October.
The ongoing activities of CSA include a holiday party in December and regular socials, neighborhood cleanups, the annual House and Garden Tour, and bi-monthly meetings when residents can speak out on neighborhood issues
All residents of Center Square are encouraged to join their neighborhood association.
