Additional Property Attributes

Former Use: In 1915, M. Curtin Whalen had begun a Ford dealership with Edward T. ?Skippy? Kastner at 42 Railroad St. adding Lincolns in 1922. In 1922, Whalen & Kastner acquired part of the former Edward Searles estate (the Site) for a new garage. A new garage went up in 1924 and was extended five years later. The partners built a gas station in 1929 and modernized it in 1951. The agency sold more than 3,000 Fords by the time it leased the garage to another operator in 1950. Sold in 1953, the business became Mahaiwe Motors. Robert K. Wheeler was the chief investor. The Mahaiwe Motors Ford agency was sold in 1958 to Ernest B. Blood, then in 1963 to Fred D. Vorck of Wellesly and William Brundage of Stockbridge. William ?Bill? Whitaker bought the Whalen & Kastner block and gas station in 1973 and, five years later, sold to William Sidney and Isadore Goodman. The site operations included a gas station and/or service station until 1986 when a gasoline release was discovered and 3 of the 4 subsurface gasoline tanks on site did not test tight and all 4 tanks were removed.
