A day in Angelica, in upstate NY


"Angelica is small, historical village nestled in the foothills of Allegany County, with a population under 900. Angelica was first settled in 1802 and established in 1805 by Captain Philip Church. Church, a nephew of Alexander Hamilton, named the town after his mother, Angelica Schuyler Church. "


"The Joncy Bridge (Alton Sylor Memorial Bridge) is the longest, clear-span timber arch in the United States at 274.10 feet. It was built 39 feet over the Angelica Creek, which flows into the Genesee River. It opened in 2003, replacing the 1930s-era steel girder truss structure. "
