Fossilized wood?

Casts of wood can only be identified by their external shape. I'm afraid there is no way this can be identified as fossil wood.

If I found this, I'd probably say it was an ironstone concretion.

There is a lot of pyrite, and related minerals, in NY, but I don't recall seeing many well-defined concretions.

I have seen plenty of concretions in New York. But I think this is some limestone or sandstone with a high iron content.

Not sure what this is either but it seems fairly “well defined” found in the same area as my original post.
