I'd have a cream dream over that. Thats about 10 minutes from my house.

Strange looking parcel though.

Also "inexpensive housing" my ***.

I can't imagine what you could build.. you can't build (in Rockland) a house closer than 10 or so feet from your property line..

Big Mike says he will do ALL the concrete and Noyzee will add the A/C and Heat for the first INDOOR dragstrip!

The ******** up here are so against a "drag" racing track. I live 1 mile from Orange County "dirt" track in Middletown, and everyone loves that, go figure.

Yeah and they tried back in '01 or '02 to propose a track up in Highland, way out in the boonies, and it got shot down. I'm suprised they have left the dirt track alone.

And I figured it must've been a railroad bed for that kind of property size.

There is a couple straightaways in between Goshen and Florida, NY. Flat and straight for a couple miles. There is ample land and opportunity up here for a drag strip. It's just that everytime someone attempts to get one going, it gets shot down. It's a shame.
