Visitors keep saying, "Greendale looks like a Norman Rockwell town."
For good reason. Greendale was designed by a town planner from New England... who gave the village a definite "New England feel"... resulting in the type of town that Norman loved to paint.
Now, Vicariously, he's being given the opportunity to paint Greendale...an idyllic "slice of Americana" that Norman would have surely loved.
