Keene Street runs from Broadway northeast to the western end of Park Avenue. A 1931 photo of the north side of Keene Street can be seen on the 4 Elm Street page. 

Keene Street may have been named for Keene, NY, a few miles southeast of Lake Placid, which in turn was named for Keene, New Hampshire. But a correspondent suggested that instead it may have been named for her grandfather, William Keene, who lived on the street for seven years around 1915. William Keene was the engineer on the railroad passenger run between Lake Clear and Lake Placid. The Keene family moved back to Utica, NY, and when William Keene retired he had 51 years on the railroad.{|
