After 60 years, Neshaminy Mall historic dioramas saved | Exclusive

Ten minutes. That’s how long it took to rescue the last three pieces of unique historical artwork from imminent destruction in Bucks County on Tuesday. Ten minutes after a week of careful planning, precise measuring and tricky demolition work necessary to free the large window-size dioramas in the now-closed Neshaminy Mall in Bensalem. The displays removed Nov. 10 were the last of seven animatronic dioramas depicting scenes from Colonial life during the American Revolution that were installed nearly 60 years ago as part of an intended permanent exhibit. With demolition of more than half of the mall property scheduled to start next month as part of a major mixed-use redevelopment of the property, Bensalem officials had pledged to save the last and most difficult to remove of the displays. Sally Van Sant Sondesky, founder and former president of the Bensalem Historical Society, was among the handful of onlookers Tuesday who got a close up view as they were removed. The scenes depicted William Penn signing a treaty with the Shackamaxon tribe; Ben Franklin’s 1785 return to Philadelphia from Paris and finally, the 1777-78 hiding of the Liberty Bell in Allentown. “You can’t do that anymore,” Van Sant Sondesky said of

A change hits Bucks County small-school high school football rankings

As we head into Week 2 of the PIAA playoffs, let's take a look at our latest small-school rankings for the Bucks County area . The small-school rankings are for area teams in Class A, 2A and 3A. We're only ranking the top three teams this time due to the other eligible teams not having enough wins. The big-school rankings (for 4A, 5A and 6A) will be back next week. Here we go: 1. Archbishop Wood (8-3) The Vikings , who are now in Class 3A, continue their impressive roll through the season. After back-to-back losses to 11-0 Great Valley and 9-1 West Catholic, Wood has knocked off Philadelphia Catholic League Blue Division foe Archbishop Carroll twice in the last two weeks. In the regular-season finale, the Vikings notched a 19-15 win over the Patriots and followed that up by blitzing Carroll 31-6 in last Saturday's PCL Class 3A championship game. In that win, senior running back D'Andre Webb dominated by rushing for 264 yards and three touchdowns. Up next for the Vikings is the PIAA District 12 Class 3A title game against 7-2 John Bartram of the Philadelphia Public League at the South Philly Supersite on Saturday (noon). 2.

County spends $1.4 million to expand Neighborhood First – Bucks Round-Up – November 12, 2026

County spends $1.4 million to expand Neighborhood First. Bucks County officials and Bristol Township community members met to mark the growth of Neighborhood First, a program that fosters mentorship, education, and structured activities for at-risk youth. The organization outgrew its original Bath Road facility, prompting the county to help fund a new 2,300-square-foot modular building next door. The expanded space includes staff offices, a classroom, an open programming area and private rooms for educational and skills development. The project also included an expanded parking lot, stormwater improvements, and landscaping. Neighborhood First Executive Director Walter Mims said the expansion is a milestone for an organization that has served local youth for 25 years. County Commissioner Chair Diane Ellis-Marseglia praised the program’s staff for their commitment to young people and their track record of helping students succeed. The project is estimated to cost approximately $1.4 million, funded through several sources, including federal American Rescue Plan Act funds and the Opioid Settlement Fund.
