Not being from Copake, I may be presuming when I point out that McIntyre's Ice Cream was opposite the theater in what had been Rockefeller's Homemade Ice Cream and later became The Hub. For some time, they also had a little popcorn stand adjacent to the theater.
If I am not wrong, Liz's Flowers was in the triangle in front of the clock. At one time, that housed Bray's Coffee Shop and then the Independent. On that note, I know that Elinor Mettler, Copake historian and founder of the Independent will further clarify the location of these buildings.
A note of interest, the original Rockefeller Homemade Ice Cream started in the little stand about to fall in ruins near the intersection of Wiltsie Bridge Road and County Route 3. I suppose the cream was then produced on what was then a farm.
