- The former Newport Creamery in Garden City was demolished Saturday, months after the longtime restaurant closed its doors.
The Cranston landmark served generations of Rhode Islanders for more than 60 years before closing on Dec. 28. The closure came after property owner WS Development exercised an early lease clause, clearing the way for new mixed-use retail space.
As demolition crews tore down the building, former customers stopped by to watch and take photos, calling it a final goodbye to a local landmark filled with memories.

- For the first time in more than two decades, Cheryl Gingerich says she woke up knowing the man convicted of raping her was behind bars.
"I was happy to think when I woke up, I thought, I slept last night in my bed and Ronald Fisher slept last night in a jail," Gingerich told NBC 10 in an exclusive interview. "That made me — I'm sorry to say it — but truthfully it made me happy."
The exclusive interview comes one day after authorities captured Ronald Fischer, one of Rhode Island's most wanted fugitives, ending a 21-year search.
Fischer disappeared in 2005 while on trial for first-degree sexual assault. He was later convicted in absentia but was never sentenced because he remained a fugitive.

- Days after a triple stabbing disrupted the Whaling City Festival, city leaders are already drafting safety changes for next year's event, including an earlier closing time.
Mayor Jon Mitchell announced that the festival will shut down an hour earlier next year, closing at 8 p.m. rather than 9 p.m. The decision aims to curb crime by ensuring the festival operations end before sundown.
"Last weekend’s incident at the Whaling City Festival is unacceptable, especially at what purports to be a family-oriented event," Mitchell said in a statement. "At the recommendation of the Chief of Police, the festival will not operate after dark going forward. Additionally, discussions are under way with the NBPD, the park board and relevant city agencies on whether Buttonwood Park is the appropriate location for the festival moving forward."

A Storm Team 10 Weather Alert remains in effect as our air quality continues to drop this evening. Unlike Wednesday, our main focus is on the ground-level smoke particles that are expected to become more concentrated over the next few hours.
It is a bit misleading, as it's not as ominous-looking with peeks of blue sky above thanks to the smoke being so low in the atmosphere.
H Models indicate our air quality will be just as bad, if not worse than yesterday, with the potential for it being considered "Unhealthy" for all. You'll start to know when air quality is deteriorating as the pungent smell of smoke returns.
This evening, outdoor activities should be limited, especially for those with respiratory issues and asthma.

- Rhode Island's new property tax on certain high-value second homes took effect July 1, and while supporters say it's aimed at luxury vacation properties, some longtime homeowners argue it unfairly affects families who have owned the same homes for generations.
The law, nicknamed the "Taylor Swift tax," applies to non-owner-occupied residential properties assessed at more than $1 million.
"It's really expensive big homes that are sitting empty most of the year and are not anyone's house," University of New Haven Economics Professor Patrick Gourley said.

- Description
- Nunavik the beluga whale has made it to Mystic Aquarium from Georgia, his fourth move in 16 years.
Dr. Naomi Rose, a marine mammal biologist, says Nunavik is usually moved for breeding purposes, but this time it’s to make room for whales going to Georgia from MarineLand in Canada.
Rose said the process of moving Nunavik was standard protocol, but the whale never gets used to it no matter how many times it has been transferred.

- Unfortunately, the latest model trends suggest the smoke is not going anywhere any time soon. The atmosphere is set up in a way that there is more or less a conveyor belt of winds ushering the smoke from Canada straight into the northeast, and this pattern does not change for a few days.
We're likely going to have another round of thick smoke for a time Thursday afternoon into Thursday evening.
