As a follow-up to my previous post, I'm having second thoughts. Further research has uncovered an article that states that Gregory Place is "only a block away from the factory." If accurate, this would place it well north of the tracks on Raynor.

This article places Philbrick "only a few hundred yards away" from the Riverhead Water District which is also shown on the 1957 map, so I suspect the LI Potato Warehouse may be it. https://nyshistoricnewspapers.org/lccn/sn86071739/1959-03-12/ed-1/seq-7/#date1=01%2F01%2F1959&index=0&...

Might it have been near Honeywell St., which crosses over Sunnyside Yard (and intersects Skillman)?

Roslyn Rd. from 2004. Definitely 4 lanes.
