Feiner: Auctioneer to be Hired to Sell Former Frank's Nursery

The Greenburgh Town Board  decided to retain the services of GA Keen Realty Advisors to oversee the sale of Frank's nursery. Harold Bordwin, a former Edgemont resident, is the managing director of the company and will be at the Town Board meeting on Wednesday evening. The Board is expected to vote to finalize the retention of GA Keen Realty Advisors in June.  The auction of the Frank's nursery property is expected to take place in the fall of 2014 (probably September). The Town Board interviewed some other commercial realtors/auctioneers in recent months before choosing GA Keen.  Frank's nursery is currently zoned for residential homes or for assisted living.
