Today's riddle: What did the tractor say to the plow? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. To Roundabout or Not to Roundabout: That is the 9W Question (rocklandtimes.com) — Nyack residents are directly affected as the Orangetown board reviews modest budget increases for Nyack Ambulance Corps and nearby libraries while also weighing a rezoning request for the UOVO art storage site. The meeting's most heated debate centered on a planned Route 9W roundabout in Palisades, with locals pressing for alternative safety fixes before construction possibly starts in mid-October.
2. NBC Comedy Starring Tracy Morgan and Daniel Radcliffe Films in Nyack (rocklandnews.com) — Nyack's streets and St. Ann's School just doubled as a TV set for NBC's comedy "The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins," adding the village to a growing list of Rockland filming locations. The piece also explains Nyack's filming rules and how Rockland is marketing itself to more productions.
3. The Walkers' Stare (nyacknewsandviews.com) — A longtime Nyack resident and local historian recalls commuting home to Nyack on 9/11 and the surreal, exhausting journey from Midtown as the attacks unfolded. His story focuses less on the immediate horror and more on the quiet solidarity that emerged among New Yorkers, shaping how he and his neighbors in the Nyacks remember that day.
4. The Man in the Red Bandana (thelamron.com) — A young man who grew up volunteering with the Nyack Fire Department became a 9/11 hero remembered worldwide as the "Man in the Red Bandana." His Nyack roots, athletic career, and quiet leadership shaped the courage he showed guiding people to safety in the South Tower, inspiring annual tributes and lessons in character for new generations.
