The Border Town Of Fort Covington, New York - Part 4

I had been driving around the border town of Fort Covington (see also Parts 1, 2 and 3 posted previously) and enjoying it so much that I didn't want to quit. The houses were lovely, the people were nice and the traffic in the business district was bustling:

A historic stone house with a sign reading "Law Office:"

A Presbyterian church:

And another brick house with gingerbread trim, this one with an amazing screened porch and stone pillars out front:

A house with a new metal roof:

Another brick house with gingerbread trim:

I can't explain why, but it seemed important to me to get a photo of the Italian Delight pizza shop on the main street of town, so much so that I had to make a number of passes. The traffic was so busy that I had trouble stopping to take a picture. I finally turned onto a side street and used my zoom lens:

A lovely home with Christmas decorations:

I don't know my house styles, but I'd call this a colonial with Canadian influences:

My last picture of the day was of this brick home, set behind big, old maples. Fort Covington looked to me to be one of the nicest towns in the north country and I sure enjoyed my tour. I hope you did also:

The Border Town Of Fort Covington, New York - Part 3

I continued driving around the small town of Fort Covington, NY on the Canadian border (see also Parts 1 and 2, posted previously). I was impressed by the historic beauty of it and what I imagined to be a high quality of life:

St. Mary's Of The Fort Church, apparently a Roman Catholic church and owner of at least one of the two cemeteries I saw:

A former church, now a senior center:

A traditional colonial house, a popular style in town:

Fort Covington Town Hall, apparently also a former church. The first "o" in Covington, by the way, is pronounced as in job or cob, not as in governor:

I turned onto what I thought was a side street but decided that it must once have been the main street:

Former commercial buildings seemed to be standing empty and/or converted to apartments:

These old main street buildings looked historic:

I'd seen the Fort Covington water tower from a distance, but got a closeup view behind a local residence:

And this was the house behind which I espied the water tower. I was finding this town fascinating and kept driving. I'll post Part 4 tomorrow:
