The city of Lewiston should have a new name — the city of parking garages. At first, I couldn’t figure out why Lewiston would need another parking garage, especially way down on Lincoln Street.

Lewiston elementary grades switching to trimester system
LEWISTON — Next year, Lewiston elementary students will get three report cards instead of four, a move some may cheer, except those who get parental rewards for good report cards. The school department is doing away with quarterly rankings for K-6 students and adopting trimester grading periods. The change is applauded by teachers, who say […]

The case for a Lewiston casino at Mill 5
Lewiston native in partnership to build a downtown casino. I guess I’ve worn a number of hats in my life: management consultant, financial analyst, attorney, software engineer and, most importantly, recipe-keeper for the Lewiston Greek Festival. But, my lifelong passion is neither food nor career-hopping — it’s economics. I opened my first economics book when […]
