The question I posed was "What is your favorite/most iconic Southern Tier NY or Northern Tier PA area landmark?" I was pleased with the amount of answers. If I were asked what is one of my favorites, I think it would be Endicott and Johnson City arches. When I moved to this area, they stood out in my opinion.
