The Sammarco Stone and Supply, Inc. was established in 1929 by Peter Sammarco as a garden and landscape center. Sammarco serviced all of the needs of lower Westchester County's immigrant landscapers by providing advice and extending credit to those who needed it. Peter was instrumental in giving them the opportunity to get their businesses started. In 1985, after 56 years in the business, Peter decided to
transfer ownership to his grandson, Frank Miceli. Frank soon improved the already successful business by further building on its basic premise of servicing the small to medium sized landscape and masonry contractors. Using his acquired knowledge of masonry and landscape construction, Frank added a new dimension to the stone industry in lower Westchester. Through hard work and a determination to succeed, the business began to prosper, amid much larger and more resourceful competition.
Today, Sammarco has grown to become the largest supplier of bluestone in lower Westchester County, encompassing 4 properties, all built around Peter's original location at 173 Oak Street in New Rochelle, New York. Sammarco's customer base has also grown, extending its reach to not only lower Westchester County, but to the lower Hudson Valley and into Connecticut. In addition to the many parks, municipalities, and private homes within these areas, listed below are some of the more recognizable establishments for which Sammarco has supplied material:
Municipal Projects:
Commerical Projects:
Residential Projects:
Landmark/Historic Projects:
In the late 1980's, Frank established the Peter Sammarco Memorial Scholarship through the Calabria Mutual Society (New Rochelle) in memory of his grandfather. The scholarship is awarded annually to a deserving young man or woman presently enrolled as a full-time undergraduate student at any college or university to help with their college tuition.
