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.

Corning native, combat vet Jason Shaddock shares Veterans Day lessons
Hundreds came to honor servicemen and women Wednesday, Nov. 11 at Corning's annual Veterans Day ceremony at the Veterans Memorial Park, off Park Avenue. Brian Francis, commander of the Corning American Legion and a retired U.S. Army veteran with 26 years of service, emphasized the role of military service in safeguarding fundamental freedoms. "It is a soldier, not a poet who has given up freedom of speech," Francis said. "It is a soldier, not the campus organizer, who gives us freedom to demonstrate. It is a soldier who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, who allows the protester to burn the flag." Francis said these liberties were earned through the sacrifices and service of those who defended the nation. Jason Shaddock, Deputy Commissioner for New York State Department of Veterans Service and combat veteran of the United State Marine Corps and the United States Army, thanked the Corning American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 4218 for co-sponsoring the Veterans Day event. "As a native of Corning, is especially meaningful to be here today," Shaddock said while speaking at the Veterans Memorial Park event. "I know the character of the people of the Southern Tier. I
