Strip Mall Sunday, Thursday Edition

It looks like the zoning board hearing for the Stockham Building Strip Club has been rescheduled. Let's keep May 5 open on the calendar.

Morrisville revitalization?

The Stockham building in downtown Morrisville

This may not be the revitalization that Morrisville was hoping for.

A “burlesque style adult entertainment” lounge above a first-floor restaurant is being proposed for the four-story masonry Stockham building on the southeast corner of Pennsylvania Avenue and Bridge Street. The proposal also calls for opening a fitness center on the third and fourth floors of the building, at 10 S. Pennsylvania Ave.

A zoning hearing is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. May 5 at borough hall, 35 Union St., and is open to the public.

More info coming soon in the Courier Times.

BCCT and Emperor Spar. Part II

As a follow up to the entry BCCT and Emperor Spar, I noticed something right away. When you look at the editoral, you see a fair number of comments. When you look at the Emperor's rebuttal, there are no comments.

Would anyone like to visit the Emperor's manifesto and leave him a little lovin'? Anyone? Someone? Bueller?

21st Century Grant Renewal

Good news for Morrisville schools. The 21st Century Grant was renewed for three years.


The Morrisville School District was recently awarded three more years of funding from the 21st Century Grant. It will receive $373,000 a year to continue community learning cetners at Grandview and M. R. Reiter Elementary Schools, Morrisville Middle and High Schools and the Ivins House.
Grant money will help contribute to homework support, remedial assistance, and enrichment.

The learning centers help kids with college preparation and cultural arts activities. They also offer a range of clubs and activities, including mentoring and tutoring, academic help, community service opportunities and more.
