Gold pendant necklace found near Crossgates Mall

I found a gold pendant necklace yesterday around 3pm in the parking lot behind the main entrance at Crossgates Mall in Albany. It's a delicate 14k gold chain, about 18 inches long, with a small heart pendant roughly 1 cm across. The back is engraved with the initials 'K.L.' and the clasp shows a tiny bend from being jostled in a bag. It's in overall good condition but clearly worn, and I figured someone might be missing it after shopping. I'd love to get it back to its owner—if this might be yours, share a description of the engraving or where you last wore it.

Blue US passport with dented corner

I lost my blue US passport yesterday around 3pm near the Empire State Plaza on State Street in Albany. It's a standard navy-blue passport book with the official seal on the cover, a few travel scratches, and a small coffee stain along the edge of page 12. The bottom-right corner is creased from a loose zipper pocket in my bag. Inside the back cover there's a tiny sticker from a World Traveler Club I joined last year. It's essential for my upcoming work trip, and I’m really hoping it turns up before my flight this Friday. If anyone found it, I’d be grateful to get it back—message me here.

Nike blue running shorts with neon trim

I found a pair of Nike running shorts this afternoon around 3:15pm near the bike racks behind the Albany Public Library on North Pearl Street. They're royal blue with neon lime-green side panels, size M, and there's a small white Nike swoosh on the left leg. There's a tiny snag near the hem and the inside pocket liner is creased, which makes me think they were dropped during a 5K along Madison Ave. If these belong to you, I can meet at the library desk or nearby to return them.

Blue Nike swim shorts with orange trim

I lost my blue Nike swim shorts yesterday around 3pm near the Empire State Plaza in Albany. They're men's medium, quick-dry fabric, about 21 inches outseam, and they're a bright cobalt blue with orange piping down the sides. There's a small white zipper pocket on the back right and a tiny embroidered dolphin on the left leg. They were a gift from my aunt and they mean a lot to me—I've worn them every summer for years. If someone found them, I’d really appreciate getting them back. You can email me at [email protected] or message me here.

Silver Yamaha flute with engraved initials

I was practicing at home when I stopped for a quick coffee yesterday around 3pm in Albany, outside a cafe on State Street near the Capitol, and realized my silver Yamaha flute was missing. It’s a student model with a silver-plated head joint, light scratches along the body, and a small dent near the foot joint. The case is black with a velvet lining and has a slight coffee stain on the outside; there are initials 'EL' engraved on the lip plate. It has sentimental value — it was a gift from my grandmother, and I’m really worried about it. If anyone saw it, email me at [email protected]; I’m hoping to get it back soon.

Found Albany concert ticket and transit pass

I found a couple of paper tickets and a blue transit pass this afternoon around 2:15pm near the Empire State Plaza entrance on Madison Ave in Albany. The tickets are white with black printing, perforated edges, and one has a small coffee stain in the bottom-right corner; the other has a red stamp for a concert. The transit pass is a blue plastic card, a bit worn at the edges, with a faded CDTA logo and a frayed black lanyard still attached. It seems like someone dropped them in a rush. If you recognize them, please message me here.
