Little Known Facts @ Edgemont

For a number of years I've been wondering about the street sign on the corner of Central Park Avenue and Old Army Road. The sign reads Kreiness Corner. I thought it may have been the name of a farm that was on this location many years ago.
I found out from the Greenburgh historian, Frank Jazzo, that the corner was named in the memory of David Kreiness.
Mr. Kreiness served as a director, 2nd vice-president and president of the Edgemont Community Council, and served in a number of positions  in the Greenburgh Civic Association. He lived in Edgemont for 29 years.
