Stop the demolition of Gedney Farm House!

Stop the demolition of Gedney Farm House!

The Issue

This nostalgic landmark located in Mamaroneck, NY is known locally as the Gedney Farm House. Plans are in the works to demolish both the house and barn, which is currently owned by the Rye Neck School District, and turn the property into a playground space for the adjacent F.E. Bellows Elementary School. We strongly urge the school board to find an alternate use for this historical building.
