FM is leaving Johnston for a new headquarters in Providence

PROVIDENCE – FM, the mutual commercial insurance company based in Johnston, will turn its newly bought building in downtown Providence into its headquarters, eventually shuttering its Johnston campus. FM, formerly known as FM Global, announced the move in a news release. FM is renovating multiple floors of the building at 10 Memorial Blvd., across from Providence Place. The building previously had an IGT sign, which was replaced with the FM logo in August. FM paid $68.5 million for the 202,000-square-foot building and a long-term ground lease, the company said in February. The property was part of the Capital Center redevelopment of Providence's former rail yards, and the land is owned by Capital Properties Inc. Brightstar, formerly IGT, will be staying in the building as well, its spokesman said after the announcement of the purchase. The commercial tenants already in the building, including Fidelity and the Capital Grille, will be staying. While officials previously said the building would complement its Johnston campus , now the plan is to shutter the Johnston headquarters and move those operations to Providence. "While Johnston will eventually cease to serve as an FM work location, no decision has been made on the timing of that transition,

Joseph Case football duo ready for Abington playoff showdown

SWANSEA — Two players who have made a difference in the Joseph Case football team 's resurgence this fall have been juniors Troy Medas and Cooper Watson. The two Cardinals defensive players have created havoc for opposing teams all season long. "What they both bring together, which I think bleeds into the rest of the defense, is they are just tough kids," first-year head coach Mike Cloutier said. "There's no backing down in them. When the game gets tough, they get tougher." The Swansea natives will be tested against No. 3 Abington in Thursday's Division 6 Round of 8 football matchup, beginning at 6 p.m. Watch MA high school football on NFHS The Green Wave (7-2) can certainly run with the football as proven in their opening day win over Longmeadow, tallying nearly 300 yards on the ground. Quarterback Jack Reilly is also accurate throwing the football and crafty in the pocket. Medas, a 6-2, 185-pound linebacker, and Watson, a 6-4, 210-pound defensive end use their size, speed and toughness to create real problems for offenses. They also work in tandem to attack the running and passing game. Both made huge plays in last week's upset over defending Division 6
