A hamlet of 4,330 that is part of Westchester County's town of North Castle, Armonk, New York, has become known in recent years for expansive, baronial estates as well as business connections to the information technology and computing industries. Its history and culture, however, date as far back as early Quaker settlement and, today, Armonk's most famous landmark is the Smith Tavern, a three story wood frame building that was used as headquarters for the local militia and Continental Army during the Revolutionary War. Most of modern Armonk's development began during the 1990s, however, when professionals from New York City began to look for untouched property on which they could build homes that were far more extensive than those that could be allowed in the city's nearer suburbs and bedroom communities. The result is a community that mixes the culture of country gentry with modern American business acumen. The hamlet's increased wealth also allows it to support a number of excellent public services and events, and the annual Armonk Outdoor Art Show, which benefits the local library system, has grown to feature over 200 artists from across the region. Recently, Armonk has even begun to feature a Frosty Day Parade, which celebrates its role as the inspiration for many of the lyrics in the popular holiday song 'Frosty the Snowman'.
