New York State Route 787 (NY 787) is a state highway in Albany County, New York, in the United States. It is a superhighway extension of Interstate 787 (I-787), continuing northward from the underpass at exit 9 for NY 7 near Green Island to downtown Cohoes at NY 32. It is a four-lane divided highway, having only at-grade intersections; thus, it may loosely be considered an expressway. For its entire length, NY 787 runs parallel to, and between, NY 32 and the Hudson River.
NY 787 begins at the partial cloverleaf interchange connecting NY 7 to I-787, the continuation of NY 787 south of the NY 7 arterial, near Green Island. Unlike I-787, which is a limited-access highway for its entire length, NY 787 is predominantly a divided highway as it lowers to grade level a small distance north of the I-787/NY 7 interchange. Near the Green Island-Cohoes city line, NY 787 intersects Tibbits Avenue, the first in a series of local streets connecting NY 787 to NY 32, which NY 787 parallels as it heads northward through Cohoes.
