Unlike many residents in town and probably unlike 3/4 of the people commenting on this issue, I can remember when the Riverdale Plaza site was a working farm, I remember the town before Rte. 410 cut through. So I've certainly seen lots of change. But no matter who owns the Cafritz property now and whoever owned it in the past, or whatever they did with it, to my way of thinking "this was the way it was done in the past" isn't necessarily a good reason for doing something now. The trees are there, they've taken a long time to grow, and not only do they add a nice touch of green to the area, they add to our oxygen supply. Our town was supposedly renamed Riverdale "Park" a few years back in large part to reflect its park-like nature. The way it's going, if we're going back to the past, we might as well go back to calling the town Riverdale because we won't have any 'park' left. <o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div></div></body></html>
