Ever wondered about the world’s biggest duck? While this one is not alive, it is indeed impressive. It was on Long Island on Route 24, between Flanders and Hampton Bays. It was originally a duck store, selling Peking ducks.
The designers actually used a real duck as a model (tied to the porch). It was constructed in the midst of the Great Depression in 1931 and is an impressive 20 feet tall, 30 feet wide and weighs in at 10 tons!
It is now at Sears Bellows County Park and is protected by the Friends of Long Island Heritage.
