EAST HAMPTON, NY - How many times have you driven East on Route 27 from East Hampton Village, and noticed the white, triangular "Connie Anderson Franklin Triangle" sign on the south side of the highway?

Well, last Saturday may have been the last chance you had to go inside and to purchase pieces of the Triangle's history. Spearheading the "everything must go!" sale was Prudence Carabine of the estate sale's beneficiary, East Hampton Historical Farm Museum, which is located at the corner of Cedar and North Main Streets.

Connie Anderson's daughter Walda Wanger Roseman was there to supervise and explain the various objects.

Most of what is now known as Maidstone Park in Springs,was once composed of two farms, Duck Creek Farm and Franklin Farm. The Franklin Farm House was eventually moved to its current location, and the location of the sale. Actress, musical comedy headliner, and real estate entrepreneur Connie Anderson developed the Franklin Triangle, and it has now been sold.
