Just over nine months after Sosabi Restaurant and Bar opened at 915 County St., taking over the space that served as longtime home of Portuguese food fixture O Gil, that space is now up for lease. North South Property Management posted Nov. 10 that a “fully operational, turnkey restaurant space” on County Street is “ready for its next owner/operator.” Kristin Teves, owner of North South Property Management, who has managed the property for over 20 years, told The Herald News that Sosabi restaurant has been closed for three to four months after it “failed miserably.” That included contending with noise ordinance violations , before the business was eventually evicted for nonpayment, she said. The fully-equipped restaurant space, which accommodates 200 people and is located on the ground floor of the three-story County Street building, is available for lease for $3,000 a month. “Ideal for an experienced restaurateur, hospitality group, or entrepreneur looking to open a restaurant without starting from scratch,” reads the post.

Commentary: The small mind of a big man on campus

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth proposed an answer that won’t work to a problem that doesn’t exist during his visit this week to the U.S. Naval War College in Newport. The problem, according to Hegseth, is that professional military education — the coursework and experiences that prepare service members for their next jobs or promotions — has succumbed to “academic drift,” without enough emphasis on warfighting. The answer, he says, is reducing civilian faculty.

New historic calendar captures Fall River memories

Fall River residents can revisit nearly a century of local memories in the Fall River Scholarship Foundation’s 2027 historic calendar, featuring scenes from Sandy Beach, Main Street, the Braga Bridge and other familiar city locations. The $5 calendar is now on sale at several area businesses, according to a community announcement. Proceeds from calendar sales will fund a scholarship for deserving students next year. James Rogers, editor of the annual calendar, said its 12 photographs highlight Fall River’s history and enduring character over the past 100 years. The cover captures a summer day at Sandy Beach, where hundreds of people are shown swimming and enjoying activities along the waterfront. Another photograph looks back at the huge roller coaster that once stood at Sandy Beach. The calendar also captures two dramatically different winters. One photograph shows cars creeping along Main Street during a raging 1967 snowstorm. Another, from December 1968, shows snow-covered Main Street decorations during the Christmas season. Historic Fall River moments fill the calendar Other photographs capture an April walk over the Braga Bridge, old typewriters once used in classrooms, a smiling young girl strolling a baby carriage and two seniors laughingly “hitchhiking” in front of the downtown senior
