An Elmira church burned to rubble. What's next for cleanup, development

A large pile of rubble that has sat in the heart of downtown Elmira for more than a year and a half will soon be cleaned up and marketed for redevelopment, city officials said. It was February 2025 when a blaze broke out at the former First Baptist Church at 121 W. Church St., which was vacant at the time. The inferno gutted the historic building, which was built in the 1890s, and shortly thereafter the City of Elmira hired a demolition company from Syracuse to tear down the building, which was deemed a total loss and a safety hazard. A fenced-in pile of bricks has remained at that site since, but that will soon change, said Elmira Mayor Dan Mandell. After the city unsuccessfully tried to get the owner of record, Marian Laurentiu of Tannery Creek Road in Corning, to deal with it, Chemung County took the future of that site out of Laurentiu's hands by foreclosing on the property in June for more than $23,000 in unpaid property taxes. At its Oct. 19 meeting, the Elmira City Council voted unanimously to pay the county $30,000 to purchase the former church property, and Mandell said the next step is

Iconic Laf-A-Lot reopens on Loon Lake after massive rebuild in Wayland

Everyone is smiling again at the Laf-A-Lot. An iconic Steuben County lakeside bar and restaurant reopened recently after a complete rebuild by its new owners. The Laf -A-Lot on Loon Lake is "pouring beers once again," Chuck Cavallaro posted Nov. 2 on the "What's going on around Wayland" Facebook page. The bar's signature cocktail, the Blue Whale, is presumably being mixed and poured again, too. The Laf-A-Lot had been closed since December 2025. Former owners Ed and Paula Kauffman sold the 100 Laf A Lot Road business to Chuck Cavallaro and his wife, Joanne Cavallaro, in March 2026. The couple, along with family members and even many of Cavallaros' neighbors on Loon Lake, immediately got to work restoring the existing bar and restaurant. “The next day (after the sale closed) I was at the bar with a crowbar and a hammer, and we started taking stuff apart," Chuck Cavallaro, a semi-retired medical doctor, told The Evening Tribune last spring. The old bar and restaurant was essentially stripped down to its studs and rebuilt, with the old floor and roof replaced, a new bar installed and a larger kitchen with updated equipment constructed. The Cavallaros documented nearly every step in the
