The rise and fall of Fayetteville's Fire Station No. 4 | Opinion

A Hyundai excavator rammed its big bucket upside the building, and steel, masonry and brick came down with a loud boom. The human operator in the cab guided the big machine’s boom and ripped out silvery beams. In another pass, the scoop took a bite out of the roof and pulled til a section came loose, followed by another boom and a cloud of dust. The human operator began arranging it all into towering piles of debris. This was the scene Thursday afternoon at what was to have been the new Fire Station No. 4 on Bragg Boulevard, near the intersection of U.S. 401 Business. The project, budgeted at $11.5 million, was planned to be a state-of-the-art facility — one with modern equipment designed to protect firefighters from the higher rates of cancer that haunt that noble profession. The station, which would replace the aging facility on Stamper Road, was planned to serve 5,000 homes. A project that never reached its purpose But work on unfinished Station No. 4 was halted in 2024, two years after it started, due to what city officials contended was shoddy construction.

The heart behind Purpose Dance Studio

Dance is one of the most diverse art forms. Most are familiar with the classical styles, like ballet, contemporary and jazz, but dance is far bigger and more diverse than these few styles. The American South is home to a plethora of styles, from social dances to regional to street; there is no shortage of movement. While most dance studios in the area focus more on the classical styles and developing competition-level dancers, Purpose Dance Studio, the newest addition to the studio scene, is taking a completely different approach. Focusing more on Hip Hop, Breaking, Popping, and Afro Fusion, the studio is a growing hub for street dancers and dancers of styles who have fewer spaces to learn, practice and perfect their art, including Christian Praise Dance.

Westover football's 'Fantastic Four' freshmen shape playoff future

Success on the gridiron has found its way to Bonanza Drive, and inside the Westover football locker room. Amid a 7-4 record marked by an undefeated home stretch that rounded out its final home game last Friday against No. 19 West Johnston in the NCHSAA 6A East playoffs, four freshmen have consistently made their presence felt on Friday nights: Zion Williams, Jrue Glenn, Montana Boney, and Jarrod Smith, known as the "Fantastic Four" in the Westover program. Westover head coach Justin Sherrod spoke about the quartet and how much they mean to the program, with their immediate impact on their winning season, which has landed them in the second round of the NCHSAA 6A East playoffs. For Sherrod, their emergence is the result of a plan that began before they ever stepped onto a high school football field. "I've seen the potential in those guys in eighth grade," Sherrod said. "Most importantly, I wanted to make sure that they knew who I was, what this program is going to be, and that these guys are going to be the future of the program for the next three years." Here's what each of the "Fantastic Four" freshmen bring to the Wolverines,
