Ansonia 'celebrates' 60th anniversary of devastating floods

Heroism, cooperation, community spirit recalled

Ansonia lawyer Greg Stamos served as master of ceremonies for Wednesday's program at Vartelas Park in Ansonia commemorating the 60th anniversary of the Floods of 1955. The park on Maple Street alongside the Naugatuck River is the former site of the Vartelas block, which included houses, businesses, and the Vartelas family's food market. 
Stamos said the rebuilding after the event "would come to represent the resilience of Valley citizens."
The flood control walls that were built after the natural disaster can be seen in the background. Stamos is accompanied by his assistant.
