Which McDonald's Closed?

The McDonald's at 1122 Troy Schenectady Road was operated by Vincent Spadea according to the Albany Business Review. Spadea owns a few other McDonald's restaurants in New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, and Rhode Island. This McDonald's was built in 1976 and is 4500 square feet.

Spadea stated, through the McDonald's corporate office,

Our purpose is to feed and foster communities. Due to several operational and economic challenges, we have made the difficult business decision to cease operations at this location. However, we are always looking for new opportunities to serve our customers.

It is unsure what will happen to the property. But there are several other McDonald's locations nearby in Latham on Route 9, another on Central Ave, Wolf Road, and Osborne Road.

The home was built in 1795 for the Denton family on Long Island who is the founder of the town of Hempstead. It was an 18th-century farmhouse. McDonald's bought the property in 1985 with plans of leveling the home and building a fast food restaurant. That's when the residents of the Town of Hempstead stepped in to try and save the historic home according to Atlas Obscura. McDonald's agreed to restore the mansion in exchange for allowing them to build a drive-thru lane. Check out this unique and extraordinary McDonald's that is known as the Denton House McDonald's or the McMansion!
