Cranston Planners Oppose Grant Avenue Homes, Split on Rockwood Avenue

Owners seeking to build on undersized lots on Grant Avenue head to the Zoning Board of Review with negative Plan Commission recommendations, and a positive recommendation failed on one Rockwood Avenue request. Planning staff had recommended approval, arguing older neighborhoods like Thornton were built on 4,000-square-foot lots. Commissioners said the projects would exceed density on the city's future land use map. A positive recommendation on one Rockwood request failed two to three, and negative recommendations on both Grant Avenue requests passed by voice vote. The Zoning Board makes the final decision.

At old O'Connor's, a menu of legal troubles and $82K in owed taxes | Exclusive

(Correction: an earlier version of this story incorrectly stated the status of the building.) WORCESTER – A mortgage lender is suing the owners of the now-shuttered O'Connor's Restaurant & Bar, alleging, among other complaints, that they owe thousands in taxes to the city and are not doing enough to attract a buyer. The lawsuit is one of two being litigated against Kyle and Dennis Maxwell, the operators of Carlow Clove Inc., which owns the closed eatery at 1160 West Boylston St. The father and son duo took over O'Connor's in 2022 from Brendan and Claire O'Connor, who had operated the restaurant for more than 30 years . The noted restaurant shut down unexpectedly in March , a week before St. Patrick's Day, due to a damage from a burst pipe, the Maxwells said on social media. Since then, the once-bustling building has sat empty while rumors have swirled about who might purchase the parcel. During a recent reporter visit, the restaurant appeared frozen in time, complete with signage advertising the week's specials. Only a portion of the black wooden sign that reads O'Connor's was out of place, having fallen and now resting against the entryway. "I've heard all sorts of

Fall River autism-friendly playground funding approved

“It’s a dream come true,” said dad and maintenance technician Marcel Riley. On Nov. 10, the Fall River City Council approved spending $1,010,000 to build Mae’s Playground, a sensory-friendly playground planned for Abbott Court Playground Park. It will be paid for by a combination of grants, private fundraising and local community preservation funds. Riley has led the campaign to build it for over a year. “Finally, I feel like we’re there, fund-wise,” Riley said. Most importantly, the project received a $425,000 PARC grant from the state’s Division of Conservation Services, announced on Oct. 7. It’s the maximum amount applicants can receive. Statewide, fifteen other projects received the grants this year. The idea for the project has been gaining steam since 2025 , when Riley build a do-it-yourself sensory-friendly playground for his daughter Mae-Ella, who has autism and is non-verbal, in their backyard. The project's website explains that sensory-friendly playgrounds are geared toward kids with conditions including autism for whom “bright lights might feel too intense, loud sounds could be startling, or certain textures may be uncomfortable.” Mae’s Playground will also be wheelchair-accessible. “Families like mine, when we decide we’re going to go to a park, first thing that runs through
