In 1958, this property was annexed into the village as part of a 68 acre expansion of the village boundary.  "The Webster Town Board was petitioned last week by the Village to allow five parcels on the west boundary and one parcel on the east line to be annexed. The properties to be added to the village rolls are 7 1/2 acres north of the Ridge and west of the village belonging to Frank J. Prinzing and the Hart Food Stores, and 1 acre south of the Ridge owned by Ferry , Pike , and Fred Schutt. At the other end of the village, land recently purchased by Haloid Xerox Co. on Phillips Rd. (59 acres) is proposed for annexation. " The Webster Herald

From 1950 through 1969 this was the site of Frank J. Prinzing , Inc.
