The Village of Canastota Reflection Park /911 Memorial was selected by the Central New York Branch of the American Public Works Association to receive the 2006 Historical Preservation Project of the Year award.

The Central New York Branch of APWA represents the counties, cities, towns and villages within a ten-county area of Central New York. Membership consists of a wide range of public works leaders, including elected officials, municipal employees, consulting engineers, suppliers of public work materials, equipment, and services, and other individuals committed to excellence in the public works field.

The award was presented at the Branch’s Annual Fall Banquet on November 17, 2006 at Barbagello’s Restaurant in East Syracuse. Representatives from the Village, including our Department of Public Works staff who constructed the project, were invited to attend the banquet to receive the award.
