WPCNR West Side Story. By John F. Bailey. December 4, 2004: Is redevelopment about to be proposed for Post Road in  vicinity of South Lexington Avenue? WPCNR has learned a reporter from another news organization has interviewed merchants of the Lexington Avenue-Post Road strip to get their views on redevelopment of the area.

One member of the White Plains Common Council told WPCNR about hearing rumors of redevelopment, but had no facts to support the rumors, and had not been briefed on any such development planned for that part of the city.

The "West Side Story" so far as WPCNR can tell based on the wildfire of rumors going around the city this weekend is that it may  involve affordable housing and other development  possibly planned to be built somewhere on West Post Road by a prominent local developer. The actual location of the development is sketchy.

The rumored site would according to the whispers be in the vicinity of  West Post Road and South Lexington Avenue near Calvary Baptist Church.

Reverend Lestor Cousin of  Calvary Baptist Church told WPCNR he was unaware of any such planned development, and would check into it.

Is there any substance  to the rumors? Stay tuned.
