For approximately 275 years, parcels of land just off of what is now South Brooksvale Road have been home to the Thayer/McKee family.

Generations have called the area their own, including Frederick Law Olmsted, the famous American landscape designer and journalist who designed Central Park in New York City.

And now, more than 47 acres of that land will remain preserved for posterity after the family donated the property to the Cheshire Land Trust and South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority earlier this year.
