Dayton Lane in Peekskill, was honorarily re-named "Angelo Roncalli - Pope John XXIII Way" on May 6, 2008. The effort was spearheaded by Rabbi Claudio Kupchik, in remembrance of the the publication of "Nostra Aetate " the Second Vatican Council's "Declaration on the Relation of the Church to non-Christian Religions" which was begun under Pope John XXIII and completed under Pope Paul VI. The document revolutionized relations between the Jewish community and the Roman Catholic Church. Located on the side of the popular Beach Shopping Center, the road is a crossway between the First Hebrew Congregation and the Holy Spirit Roman Catholic Parish.
