The concept for a Centennial Park grew out of a recognition that we would need a more permanent place for residents and visitors to learn about Greenwood Lake’s unique history. Part education and part information, the park setting, adjacent to Orange County’s largest fresh water lake, would maximize the potential for visitors to more easily become acquainted with the historical ingredients that have contributed to making Greenwood Lake the internationally known community it has become.
The past will meet the present when the park is completed. The venue will enable visitors to take in the vista that’s drawn boxers and baseball players, steamboats and celebrities, in a century’s worth of lake life.

Olsen’s hour-long talk – part of the Historical Society’s free series of community programs – explored why the line was built, how it evolved over time, how it shaped life at Greenwood Lake, and why hardly any passenger train lines ever experience a positive cash flow.
