Niagara Falls, NY		 Super Cream
Homer, NY
De Dee's Dairy looks like it was built in the 1950s or so.

Super Cream appears to be from the 1950s or 1960s. The angle of the roof suggests this might have been built as a Carvel.

King Kone is another 1950s/1960s Carvel-looking stand.

Hoyer's Ice Cream

Hoyer's Ice Cream appears to be from the 1950s or earlier. The neon cone sign is lit at night. For more, see this website.

Moxie's Ice Cream
Wynantskill, NY		 Purity Ice Cream Company

Moxie's Ice Cream is housed in a stand from the 1930s. It was previously known as Wagar's Dairy. The Moxie family has been running this stand and making their own homemade ice cream since 1969. There are always new flavors - made in 150 gallon batches with vintage equipment. For more, see this website.

The Purity Ice Cream Company opened in 1936. This store features over 40 flavors of ice cream as well as baked goods. For more, see these websites: 1, 2, and 3.

Krisch's Restaurant & Ice Cream Parlor opened in 1920. This business features diner-like atmosphere and food, as well as homemade ice cream. For more, see their website.

Dairy Freeze Chill and Grill
Latham, NY		 Pink Roof Ice Cream Stand
Lake George, NY
The Dairy Freeze Chill and Grill is part of the Latham Greens Family Fun Center.

The Pink Roof Ice Cream Stand appears to be from the late 1960s or early 1970s.

Martha's Dandee Creme
Lake George, NY
Martha's Dandee Creme was once part of a restaurant and cabin complex which was built in the 1950s. The photo at the left above is from 2001. The property was originally used as a chicken farm. A rooster, possibly from that farm, used to hang around the restaurant. He was the inspiration for the fiberglass statue on top of the sign. In 1999, the entire property was sold to Six Flags. Their Great Escape Amusement Park is just across the road from Martha's. In 2009, the previous owners bought back the ice cream stand and restaurant. The restaurant still remains closed. The neon sign was altered to advertise exclusively for the ice cream stand (second photo above). For more, see these websites: 1, 2, and 3.

Snow Man
Troy, NY
The Snow Man stand has been here since 1953 and still uses the original Emory Thompson machines to make its ice cream.

Mister Shake
Richfield Springs, NY
Mister Shake features an old sign topped by a rabbit and a funky mini golf course.

Ice Cream Island
Dansville, NY		 Cooligan's Island
Alden, NY		 May's Alterations
Auburn, NY		 former photo kiosk?
Muncie, IN
I don't know if Ice Cream Island, Cooligan's Island, May's Alterations and the Muncie structure were always ice cream stands or if they were originally photo developing kiosks from the 1960s/1970s. All four are located in shopping center parking lots. Ice Cream Island was previously called "Picture Island". Fotomat had similar structures which had a pyramid style roof. For more, see this website.
