The Big Duck
How can you imagine visiting Long Island and not visiting this wonderful place. Inspired by the practice of duck farming that was prevalent earlier (though there still are some), this building was built in the shape of a 'big duck', complete with beak and wings. Though it no longer sells ducks, the structure is hard to ignore, and hence is a major attraction for tourists. Collect Big Duck souvenirs and give them to your friends back home!
