The Law Office of Shawn Richarz currently occupies the former bank building at the corner of Cayuga Street and Highway #3.
One need only to look upward to see the impressive architecture that defined an era of colonization and craftsmanship.

Cayuga Street Architecture


Much of the architectural detail on Cayuga Street has been randomly "modernized." Vinyl-siding, timber and paint, for example, hide some of the original structures. Decades of changing businesses leave remnants of old signage.
However, one need only to look skyward to witness the ornate brick and stonework that an earlier generation considered worthy of village life.
