Delaware Park
This park was created as a setting for passive recreation in surroundings that evoked an ideal rural world. A rolling meadow dotted with trees and surrounded by woods formed the eastern portion. Olmsted said: “There is no more beautiful picture than that of a beautiful meadow, over which level-armed sheltering trees cast broad shadows.” Located west of Delaware Avenue, Olmsted and Vaux created a picturesque lake for boating in summer and skating in winter by damning the Scajaquada Creek that flowed through the site.

Bar-Bill Tavern
The Bar Bill Tavern has been an institution in East Aurora, NY since the day it opened its doors. Mystery surrounds the lore of "The Bill" at almost every telling. Everything from the name, to the famous customer vacations, to the Mug Club feature a level of mythology when told at the bar (and elsewhere). The old building at 185 Main Street has stood for over 150 years. Originally opened by Barb and Bill (hence the name) Korzelius, the tavern replaced a small ice cream shop on the west end of Main St.
