After devastating fire, future of Northfield s historic Archer House is in doubt Despite fire damage, residents hope Archer House can rise again May 8, 2021 1:54pm Text size Copy shortlink:
It s still standing as that landmark sort of.
A November fire, breaking out in one of the rambling redbrick structure s restaurants, destroyed the central section of the Archer House.
Firefighters poured more than 2 million gallons of water on the fire; in the six months since then, the building has stood open and exposed to rain and snow.
It s an open question whether the Archer House can be saved or whether it will have to be torn down. Insurance investigators have been taking their sweet time deciding on what kind of a payout they ll offer, and until the insurance question is settled, the building s owner says he can t make a decision on the path forward.
EASTON For seven straight years, about 300 students graduating from Oliver Ames High School have taken a day off from classes in April each year to participate in a public service tradition called the Day of KindNess.
The event is held in memory of Devin Ness, an Oliver Ames High School senior and captain of the wrestling team, who died suddenly from an aneurysm in 2013.
But the COVID-19 pandemic has threatened the event, which started in 2013, for a second straight year. There might not be a Day of KindNess held this year, because of COVID-19, said Brad Ness, Devin s father.
Instead, a local business has stepped up to contribute in Devin Ness name.
