Padaminas II Reopens Post-Renovations After Fire Next Door

Padaminas NY Bakery II is back and ready to serve our community. In the light of a fire on May 15, in a residential building on Main Street near the business, more than a dozen people were displaced from their homes. Padaminas sustained water damage, the fire burned through the building's soffits, causing it to remain closed for a few weeks for repairs.
