There were four bowlers who rolled season honor scores this week at Crystal Lanes and it was quite a variety. There was a ladies 700, a senior 700, a junior 700 and a perfect game. Ladies first. Samantha Blanford is in the midst of enjoying a season to remember. For the sixth time this year, she has reached the 700 barrier. This week in the Magic Rags Cleaning Services Ladies League, Samantha registered the highest series for the ladies this season. She opened the night with a 269 game, added a 254 and closed the night with a 203 effort to finish with a 726 series. In the same league, two other ladies topped the 600 mark. Deon Frost opened a 662 series with a 257 game and added scores of 213 and 192 while Christine Harris notched a 601 total.

Steuben County Land Bank builds first new home, plans more in Erwin
The Steuben County Land Bank is tearing some properties down and building others up around the Corning area. One of the projects marks an historic first for the non-profit, one that is setting the stage for an even bigger boost to the local housing stock. The Land Bank this fall demolished a fire-damaged property at 40 Mill St. in the town of Erwin. The property will be sub-divided into a handful of individual parcels where new homes will be constructed over the next few years. “That would be our biggest project,” said Chris Brewer, executive director of the Steuben County Land Bank. “Hopefully we start breaking ground next year on that project. That will be a fun one.” Brewer said the new Erwin homes will follow a playbook established at 20 Townsend Ave. in Riverside, where the Land Bank is currently in the midst of its first-ever new build. While the Land Bank had undertaken major renovations at previous projects, the Riverside home is the first it has built from the ground up. “That’s the first of its kind. That’s the first new build the Land Bank has ever done,” Brewer said. “Typically we do rehabs or demos. We’re testing

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. After the city unsuccessfully tried to get the owner of record, Marian Laurentiu of Tannery Creek Road in Corning, to deal with it, Chemung County took the future of that site out of Laurentiu's hands by foreclosing on the property in June for more than $23,000 in unpaid property taxes. At its Oct. 19 meeting, the Elmira City Council voted unanimously to pay the county $30,000 to purchase the former church property, and Mandell said the next step is
