Architecture in a Small Town, New York

Forest City , Florida

Story Narrative:

What is your favorite memory of growing up in a small town?

"Another favorite memory of mine living in a small town in Dobbs Ferry, New York is looking at the way the town was built, how everything was so close together and the people were close together. Our buildings were all attached going up this main street. The street was cobblestone. I guess they used to have horses and carriages that went through there many years before.

And one of my favorite buildings to look at on Main Street, other than our home, was the Palazzo, which translated from Italian to English means 'The Palace'. It was a three-story building that my great-grandfather Altieri had built on Main Street. It's a really great place and I have a lot of favorite memories from there."
