Legislators are close to having a portion of State Route 375 in Woodstock, New York renamed in honor of Levon Helm. A Bill designating the change has already won approval in the Senate and the Assembly. The next step is up to the Governor, Andrew Cuomo. State Senator Cecelia Tkaczyk wants the state's chief executive to put pen to paper on the Bill because, 'Helm is a true American hero. And as a critically acclaimed international star he could have lived anywhere in the world, but made his home in Woodstock and did so much for his community and for the local economy.'
