It explains why our hillside geography and harsh winters quietly weaken hardware, then walks through quick, low-cost checks that can prevent panels, railings, and pergolas from failing when high winds hit.
   

2. More than 45 restaurants are opening this fall in Westchester (lohud.com) — Several new food spots are headed to Tarrytown, including Bobo's Cafe on North Broadway and a Chick-fil-A on Tarrytown Road, giving locals more coffee, breakfast, and fast-food options.

5. Rangers bringing much smaller roster than usual to training camp (foreverblueshirts.com) — The New York Rangers are opening training camp in Tarrytown with a leaner 48-player roster and no tryout invitees, meaning more focused practices at the local facility.
