“Kenmore Boulevard has a new record store to complement the recording studios, instrument shops and live-performance venues that give credence to the strip’s recent designation as Akron’s “Music Row.”

Innerbelt History Collection is an online archive featuring recordings of residents' accounts of upheaval as result of construction project. beaconjournal.com/story/news/loc…

Hearing the stories of the neighborhoods that were removed when the Innerbelt was built and being able to share those stories has been an incredible experience. Hear stories from Pastor Robert DeJournett, Bishop Joey Johnson, Annmarie Ford and more here: summitmemory.org/digital/custom…

In this powerful segment, Senior Pastor Robert DeJournette describes how residents felt, the impact on families and the loss of community. "Just because you weren't in power or you were marginalized, you suffered at the hands of other folk." summitmemory.org/digital/collec…

@Goldfly6 @FlocoTorres I am going to be in Macon at that time.

@RogerRiddle_ maybe do dyngus day this year again? Bring @FlocoTorres this time?

@JeffreyMWard Hey, I really enjoyed talking with you about birds. I was hoping we would get you to Ohio to go bird watching with us. I really wanted to get you here for the Biggest Week and to the National Park. Maybe it can still happen one day. Until then, I wish you all the best!

Nah all jokes aside, if twitter dies, imma miss all of y’all. I may not have private convos with y’all but I notice all of you and I definitely have this little made up family in my head.

@SceneOnRadio Hey, it was a pleasure to have met you here. I will always listen to whatever you do next even if I can't reach out and tell you how much I enjoy it. I wish you all the best.

Such great music. This is sad news.

Who just happens to have a old spotting scope tripod that they aren’t using anymore lying around and wouldn’t mind giving it to a young desperate birder named Jeffrey Ward?

@AkronOhioMayor Denico is a cool dude.

This week, Mayor Horrigan and the Youth Opportunity Director Denico visited the Fallen Fathers Foundation, which mentors at-risk youth. They were awarded ARPA funding through the City's Violence Intervention & Prevention Grant Program: akronohiorescue.gov/vip-grant

Truly incredible what's happening in that part of Akron that was once polluted and neglected.

Happy to celebrate today as @AKCivicCommons and the Summit Lake Neighborhood breaks ground on the Summit Lake Trail. This resident led project will create a vital connection to improve neighborhood access, recreation and transportation.
