Paterson native Fetty Wap marries Alexis Hill in luxe NJ ceremony

Paterson native Fetty Wap and model Alexis Hill have officially tied the knot. The 35-year-old rapper, born Willie Maxwell II, married Hill in a lavish ceremony at The Legacy Castle in Pompton Plains on Nov. 5. The couple announced their nuptials in an Instagram post , captioned "Mr. And Mrs. Maxwell." The intimate ceremony, which reportedly drew about 90 to 100 guests, came less than four months after their engagement in July 2026. The marriage marks another milestone for Fetty Wap after his release from federal prison earlier this year. The "Trap Queen" rapper pleaded guilty to drug trafficking charges in August 2022 and was sentenced in May 2023 to six years in prison. He served about three years before transitioning to home confinement and supervised release in January 2026, with his full sentence term scheduled to conclude on Nov. 8. Since returning home, Fetty Wap has focused on rebuilding his music career, releasing his fourth studio album " Zavier " in March. The album centers on themes of personal growth, time away from the spotlight and navigating a return to the music industry. The musician also embarked on his Nostalgia Tour earlier this year, making stops across the United

Why Do NYC Buildings Have Wooden Water Towers on the Roof?

New York City buildings have wooden water towers on their roofs because the city’s street-level water pressure is not always strong enough to reach the upper floors. In a traditional system, a pump lifts water to a tank above the apartments. When someone turns on a faucet or takes a shower, gravity sends that stored water back down through the building’s pipes. The rooftop tank is there to provide a dependable source of water and pressure, not to decorate the skyline.

Few museums show the North's Civil Rights Movement. A new one in Harlem is ‘just getting started’

NEW YORK (AP) — The National Urban League will open a museum this weekend in Harlem dedicated to the civil rights struggles in the North, the first of its kind in New York City. Located in the Urban League’s Manhattan headquarters, the Urban Civil Rights Museum in Harlem explores the region's lesser-known histories of the Civil Rights Movement and the local changemakers and artists whose contributions helped shape politics and culture worldwide. With nearly 12,000 square feet (1,100 square meters) of permanent and rotating exhibits and galleries, organizers say they hope to remind visitors of their “collective power” in the present. “We want people to know that they are key participants,” Jennifer Scott, the museum’s founding executive director and chief curator, told The Associated Press during an exclusive preview of the space. “History is living, it’s unfinished, and we can impact it,” she said. Scott is a national public history scholar with experience preserving Black history in museums and research centers across the country. She led the design of a permanent interactive installation and an inaugural set of rotating exhibitions. Marc Morial, the Urban League’s president and CEO, underscored the importance of establishing the museum just blocks from such key
