A
postcard of a town. Albany Chamber in the old railroad depot, a proper
bookstore on the square, restored Aztec Theater and Art
Center in the Old Jail. The 1883
Courthouse has clock and bell.
Albany Guide published twice a year to correspond with the County's
two major events: The Fort Griffin Fandandle (last two weekends
of June) and hunting season. If every small town was like this, we'd
never stay home. |
