New Kingsport Bridge will connect Brickyard Park to downtown

The City of Kingsport is getting a major boost to help connect Brickyard Park to downtown. Federal officials have awarded the city 5.6 million dollars to build a new pedestrian and bicycle bridge over the CSX railroad tracks. The bridge will link Brickyard Park directly to Centennial Park downtown. Local transportation officials say the project will give walkers and cyclists a much safer way to cross the tracks, while hopefully bringing more foot traffic to downtown shops and restaurants. As part of the deal with CSX, the existing street-level vehicle crossing will be permanently closed once the bridge is built. Kingsport will pitch in 1.4 million dollars to match the federal grant, adding to 2.6 million already secured from the state. Design work is finished, and construction is expected to kick off in 2027.

Auxilary Unit 231 hosts 71st Veterans Dinner

The American Legion Auxiliary Unit 231 has been a part of Rogersville for longer than most people have been alive. The unit was chartered on June 24, 1955, and it wasn’t long after that before it started hosting an annual dinner to recognize Veterans Day. On Saturday night, Unit 231 hosted its 71st annual Veterans Day Dinner for veterans of the US Armed Forces living in Hawkins County and those who support them. The organization, which had just 11 members at the time of its founding, has gone on to make enormous public service contributions in the seven decades that followed. Saturday’s dinner was just one more example of that. The annual dinner is held at the Price Public Community Center & Swift Museum on Spring Street. Unit 231 has been at the forefront of this building’s transition into a community center and is a longtime co-sponsor of it. In the 1950s, they were one of the organizations advocating for making Highway 11W through Hawkins County a four-lane highway. They have worked with Habitat for Humanity, the March of Dimes, and are often seen distributing gifts and holiday food around Christmas, and helping veterans at the VA Hospital in Mountain

Knox County voters picked these two Democrats over entrenched GOP candidates

If Knox County voters were in the only ones in Tennessee, Democrat Jerri Green would be governor. And Green's race isn't the only one that would've flipped to Democrats if only Knox County had a say: Knox County chose Democrat David Miller over Republican Jimmy Matlock to represent them in Tennessee Senate District 5 (though the county is just a sliver of that district). Voters in Anderson and Loudon counties ended up carrying Matlock over the finish line , but Miller's Knox County success is notable given the district rarely fielded a Democratic opponent when Lt. Gov. Randy McNally held the seat after he was first elected in 1986. The last Democrat to run for that seat was Stuart Starr in 2018, who got 33% of the Knox County vote. Here's how Knox County voted Nov. 3: Governor Marsha Blackburn: 42% (won statewide with 46%) Jerri Green: 48% David Hatley: 7% Lauren Pinkston: 1% Constitutional amendment to allow judges to deny bail to certain defendants Yes: 62% (won statewide with 67%) No: 38% Constitutional amendment to make property taxes unconstitutional Yes: 64% (won statewide with 67%) No: 36% Constitutional amendment to add new rights for crime victims Yes: 73% (won

Lakeshore Pavilion is latest jewel added to beloved Knoxville Park | Opinion

Lakeshore Park celebrated the opening of the Lakeshore Pavilion with a ribbon cutting on the highest hill at the beloved Knoxville park. Simon Bradbury, the new CEO of the park, was joined by Mayor Indya Kincannon. Lakeshore Park was created 35 years ago when Tennessee Gov. Ned McWherter agreed to transfer the land that had housed a mental health hospital to the city. It is now managed by the Lakeshore Conservancy with the city assisting and the city mayor serving on its board of directors. The local effort to create the park was led by Jimmy Haslam III and attorney Caesar Stair III, along with me when I was mayor. The first challenge was to demolish the old buildings that came with the land. The hospital at one time housed more than 2,000 patients. Longtime Knoxville arborist Jim Cortese has received the 2026 Distinguished Achievement Award for Human Issues in Horticulture from the American Society for Horticultural Science. He wrote "John Muir Climbs a Tree and other Tree Tales," which is available from various bookstores. More about him can be found at www.wjimcortese.com .
