Commercial lot on Route 6 in Waymart sold for $85,000

REMAX Wayne, of Honesdale, posted on its Facebook page Nov. 5 that the real estate company has sold a wooded lot fronting Route 6 in Waymart for $85,000. The plans for the commercial property have not yet been made known. The 2.38-acre parcel is on the south side of Route 6, sandwiched between DG Market, previously known as Dollar General (670 Roosevelt Highway, Waymart), and the former Hayes Market (686 Roosevelt Highway, Waymart). The lot bends around behind the DG Market parcel. The newly sold lot is zoned for general commercial development. Paul Meagher, sales associate and owner of REMAX Wayne, replied to an inquiry from the Tri-County Independent, “The buyer for that property in Waymart was Robert Grimm and I have no idea what he is going to do with it.” REMAX Wayne broker and owner Tim Meagher closed the transaction for the property. More Wayne County real estate: Former Poconos home of Cove Haven Resorts founder up for sale Wayne County Tax Assessment Office records show that the parcel’s most recent owner is Regina L. Lesak.

Scranton Schools Vote to Seize Former Penn Foster Building for $2.2M

Scranton school directors voted 7-2 this week to authorize going after the former Penn Foster property at 925 Oak St. through legal action, agreeing to pay $2.2 million for the 85,000-square-foot building if the district cannot strike a deal with its current owner. The vote does not mean the purchase is final or that any taking has happened yet — it simply clears the district to pursue the acquisition if negotiations stall.

The art of remembrance: Work continues on Archbald Borough Veterans Monument Park

To Stephen Colley, many military memorials feel polished and rigid. Colley doesn't want his work for the Archbald Borough Veterans Monument Park to feel that way. "It looks like movie stars were in the middle of war," the sculptor and Marywood University educator said of other statues he's seen as he stood over several miniature renditions of a 12-foot eagle obelisk he designed.

Broadway talent to perform in the Poconos on Nov. 22 | Kulick

What makes our “neck of the woods” so special are the little things that happen that are singular to our community, being Monroe County and its surrounding counties. One of those things is the fact that through the efforts of folks like Skip Scheetz and Stephen DeAngelis we have the opportunity to see seasoned performers that others pay dearly to see perform their art by way of the nonprofit organization Pocono Center for the Arts! (PCFTA) To this end, I wanted to highlight the final show that will be performed on Sunday, Nov. 22, at Stroudsmoor Country Inn at 4 p.m. If you have taken the opportunity to see any one of the shows in the past, you know what I am talking about. PCFTA has a motto, “Expect the Unexpected.” Well, the final show of the season never disappoints, and it is why it is titled “Show of Shows.” The performers who will appear represent those who have performed on Broadway stages, at concert halls, and on international stages. Stephen DeAngelis, producing artistic director, both produces and hosts the evening’s entertainment. William Michals has performed in "Beauty and the Beast," performing both the role of the Beast and of
