Stabler's corn cannery operated inside this time-worn structure in the latter half of the 1800s. The factory was run by horticulturist Henry Stabler of Roslyn, who improved many plant varieties including his own strain of sweet corn. In one year he canned 36,000 containers of Stabler Green Corn. His son Dr. Augustus Stabler continued the operation. Mariano Eckert executed this painting in the 1960s. Soon afterward the cannery was converted into a second Roslyn home.

Built as the Brighton Grange Hall in 1886, this now-demolished building is remembered as St. Luke's Parish Hall. The Brighton Grange Hall rose on the foundations of the 1761 Anglican Chapel of Ease. For 63 years the Patrons of Husbandry convened in its barrel-vaulted meeting room and maintained a local library while encouraging community activities such as concerts, plays, and civic meetings. In 1935 it became the Parish Hall and a place for Episcopal Sunday School. It was torn down in 1991.
