The latest edition of the Norwood News is out with plenty of community news you can use! There’s plenty to talk about, so here goes:

The big story is on something of a rarity: a stop by a U.S. sitting President in the Bronx. President Barack Obama did just that, spending an afternoon at Lehman College. The Norwood News was there to capture Mr. Obama’s rare event, which detailed the formation of a nonprofit geared towards young minority men.

Heading back to more hyperlocal terrain, we go to Mosholu Parkway, where community residents are hammering out a new vision plan for the parkway. Council Members Andrew Cohen and Ritchie Torres sponsored a workshop that sought direct input from the community, laying the initial groundwork for the key thoroughfare.

We then have the usual items: Out & About, a special Inquiring Photographer on the President’s visit, and of course, the Bronx Beltway, featuring some political stories happening around the area. If you want to get your hands on a hard copy, stop by the over 300 locations in and around the area, primarily the Norwood/Bedford Park sections of the Bronx.
