Alfred, NY - Five Historic Places (Social Media Short) While visiting Alfred, be sure to stop by the Terracotta House which was built in 1892 almost entirely of terracotta bricks. The colors blend in beautifully with fall foliage. On top of being a beautiful village tucked in the nape of an equally beautiful, scenic valley, Alfred sits between three colleges: Alfred University, Alfred State College and the NYS College of Ceramics at Alfred University. For such a small, bustling town, parking is easy and everything is within a few minutes walk. It is rich with art with galleries like Gallery 2 that offers work by local artisans, the Cohen Gallery of Alfred University, the Alfred Ceramics Art Museum and the storybook-like Celadon Terracotta Building that was built in 1892 and is on the Register of Historic Places. In the heart of the village, you’ll find the Terracotta Coffee House, the Collegiate Diner, Rosebush restaurant and a super-cool natural grocery store called the Rogue Carrot. It’s a college town so there’s pizza of course, with a high recommendation going to Little Sicily Pizza & Restaurant which has fantastic dinners, too. ~A.A.
