Hudson is a one time booming furniture production town that was hard hit by the transition of furniture production from other coutries in the last decade. Main street Hudson has an All-American feel. Hudson's landmarks are the "HUB" (the Hudson Uptown Building, the former Hudson Elementary school where locals can gather for special events), The Yellow Submarine (An eatery the locals all have visited), the Hudson Library, the Hudson Vol. Fire Department, The Hudson Bench Gang and the Bench Gang Bus behind the old town hall building(The Hudson Bench Gang might stimulate fears in some, but there retired locals began gathering in the early 1990's to discuss everything from politics to weather, to their earlier years. This Friendly group of guys offered a warm welcome to nearly every passer by), the Hudson Post Office, The Hudson Optimist Club (Where many young local boys and girls can enjoy America's greatest past-time), and Hudson Primary Care. On clear days, Hudson offers wonderful views of the Blue Ridge Mountains highest peaks at Grandfather Mountain.
