Good Morning,
⚓️ Expansion of Newport’s Pell Elementary School moves a step closer with a Topping Off Ceremony on Wednesday. A topping-off ceremony is a “steel signing ceremony” at which “members of the Pell community sign their names on the steel beams used in the project,” according to school officials. After the signing, the beams will be lifted by crane and put in place in the building.
⚓️ Have a look at what sold in your neighborhood recently.
⚓️ Washington Square and Eisenhower Park have been transformed into Salem, Massachusetts for the filming of the Hocus Pocus sequel, Black Flame (a.k.a. Hocus Pocus 2).
