From iconic local institutions like Building 19 and the vintage roller-skating days at Roll Land to dramatic high school football finishes, architectural restorations, and headline-grabbing town controversies, Part II delivers the top 25 most-read Norwood stories from September.
Featuring memorable milestones like the uncovering of the Norwood Theatre’s hidden facade, local police bravery recognitions, and quirky neighborhood legends—including the notorious low bridge on Morse Street—these entries capture the true spirit, grit, and colorful history of the Norwood community.
Alongside these triumphs, the list also pauses to honor poignant moments of heartbreak and loss that shook the town, including the tragic deaths of young community members like four-year-old Kevin McNulty and 14-year-old Allison White, which deeply united Norwood in mourning.
