Beginning at 11 a.m on Saturday, the ceremony will feature the unveiling of a new street sign honoring the late couple, remarks from elected officials, a poetry performance, and the dedication of a new “Walk Rye History” panel.
The MTA revoked earlier “conditional determination letters” that would have renewed Winfield's lease to operate a cafe at the Croton Metro-North station and open a new operation at the Harrison station.
Initially, the plan was to open at the Rye train station in the summer, but Breno Donatti, Winfield Street Coffee founder, said construction is already underway and ahead of schedule.
