First up: The Big Duck.
TBD is a Long Island landmark. Originally built during the Depression in Riverhead, where I grew up, it served as a store on a duck farm on Main Street. Later, it moved to Flanders, and now it's in Hampton Bays (or on the way there, anyway). These days, it's a store for the Suffolk County Parks Dept. (I have a nifty Big Duck t-shirt, too.)You've gotta love buildings that look like big animals.

A duck shaped building! Now I've seen it all.
Oh, it's an American tradition, Alan. Poke around the Roadside America site--there's lots of examples.
What a nice complement building for the Big Chicken!
Duck, duck, duck, duck, duck, duck, duck, duck, duck...goose!
