by David Cruz

The latest digital edition of the Norwood News is now available to read and share with your friends. Check it out via your smartphone or the convenience of your home.

Our second edition of the year features surprising news from developer Mark Stagg, owner of The Stagg Group. The cat was let out of the bag this week when we learned the large-scale developer recently  purchased a trio of new properties along Webster Avenue, complementing the other three Stagg properties slated to open. Find out which deeds Stagg took over along the burgeoning corridor The Stagg Group has purchased and what the going price was.

Other stories include a disturbing discovery of a New Jersey man found dead inside the trunk of his car at a quiet street in Norwood, problem vendors along the Jerome-Gun Hill Business Improvement District, a new HIV/AIDS campaign courtesy of the Department of Health and an editorial on the legal loopholes behind the Right to Know bill. We also profile our neighbors in Kingsbridge, exploring the neighborhood’s Business Improvement District and its lone and multi-tasking executive director.

Other hallmarks of the Norwood News are also featured, including the Inquiring Photographer and Out & About sections.

So read up the Norwood News. If you want to get your hands on a free copy just stop by one of 300 locations across the northwest Bronx. Enjoy!

Welcome to the Norwood News, a bi-weekly community newspaper that primarily serves the northwest Bronx communities of Norwood, Bedford Park, Fordham and University Heights. Through our Breaking Bronx blog, we focus on news and information for those neighborhoods, but aim to cover as much Bronx-related news as possible. Founded in 1988 by Mosholu Preservation Corporation, a not-for-profit affiliate of Montefiore Medical Center, the Norwood News began as a monthly and grew to a bi-weekly in 1994. In September 2003 the paper expanded to cover University Heights and now covers all the neighborhoods of Community District 7. The Norwood News exists to foster communication among citizens and organizations and to be a tool for neighborhood development efforts. The Norwood News runs the Bronx Youth Journalism Heard, a journalism training program for Bronx high school students.
