Anaheim demolishes another motel to make way for housing along Beach Boulevard
A Silverado excavator clawed into the side of the Rainbow Inn, a former 42-unit motel in Anaheim, leaving it punctured in the name of progress during a much celebrated demolition. The cascading wreckage brought applause from city officials who gathered on Thursday morning to witness a milestone in Anaheim's decades-long effort to rebuild Beach Boulevard. In toppling the motel, construction crews cleared the way for future townhomes and affordable housing. The boulevard was once called Orange County's 'road to summer,' as it allowed motorists to travel from Buena Park to the ocean on a single highway. But as the decades went by and freeways were built, a string of motels along Anaheim's 1.5-mile stretch of the highway decayed. The area served as a longtime magnet for a host of criminal activities, from drug dealing to sex trafficking. Between 2017 and 2021, Anaheim police made 120 arrests at the Rainbow Inn. Citing such crime statistics, Anaheim authorized the seizure of the Rainbow Inn through eminent domain last May after negotiations with the motel owner broke down. The city ultimately did not have to take such measures when both parties agreed in September to a $6.9-million sales price for the property. 'We want to clean up this area in west Anaheim,' Rep. Lou Correa said at a press conference in front of the motel. 'This is what good government is all about. It's about listening to our locals, to our constituents, responding to their needs and moving forward.' Correa presented Anaheim with ceremonial check representing $500,000 of federal funds earmarked to cover a portion of the property's purchase price. Anaheim previously bought two motels on either side of the Rainbow Inn, the Covered Wagon and the Anaheim Lodge, which have already been demolished. After the Rainbow Inn's demolition, the city now has a continuous 2.7-acre property to attract housing as part of its Rebuild Beach Initiative. 'We want new residents invested in Beach Boulevard,' said Anaheim Mayor Ashleigh Aitken, who donned a hot pink hardhat for the demolition. 'This is our city's commitment to west Anaheim, and there is no more deserving place for our city's attention. Since 2019, we have proudly spent $35 million buying, closing and clearing four of our most problematic Beach [Boulevard] motels.' Anaheim isn't actively soliciting proposals from potential developers for the Beach Boulevard property yet, but the city does have a general plan to have 120 apartment units and 15 market-rate townhomes built there. 'We're the seed capital for Beach Boulevard,' Mike Lyster, an Anaheim spokesperson, told TimesOC. 'The private sector would look with some caution at the highway but we're showing them that we're going to lead the way.' An update given to the Anaheim City Council in April spelled out progress on that front with In-N-Out, Dave's Hot Chicken and Dutch Bros announced as future tenants coming to 39 Commons, a development on the corner of Beach Boulevard and Lincoln Avenue. Lyster also called the general plan for Beach Boulevard housing at the site of the trio of demolished motels a likely candidate to be an early beneficiary of an initial $15-million contribution from the Walt Disney Co. to the Anaheim Local Housing Trust Find. Disney agreed to the funding, which includes another $15-million contribution slated in five years, as a community benefit included in its DisneylandForward expansion plan. According to Lyster, the funds are likely to be used to cover funding gaps for affordable housing projects in the city. Though Anaheim isn't currently negotiating another motel purchase along Beach Boulevard, the Rainbow Inn represented another step in its future revitalization for elected officials who gathered to see its long-desired downfall. 'We continue to turn the page,' said Anaheim Councilmember Ryan Balius. 'The demolition of the Rainbow Inn is a symbolic and shared commitment to transform this area into a vibrant, safe and thriving part of our city.'

Minnesota Twins activate Carlos Correa from concussion injured list
1 of 5 | Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa is expected to be in the lineup against the Kansas City Royals on Friday in Minneapolis. File Photo by Archie Carpenter/UPI | License Photo May 23 (UPI) -- The Minnesota Twins activated shortstop Carlos Correa off the concussion injured list, the team announced Friday. He is expected to be in the lineup Friday night against the Kansas City Royals. Correa sustained the concussion when he ran into outfielder Byron Buxton during a win over the Baltimore Orioles on May 15 in Baltimore. Both players were placed on the seven-day concussion list. Correa hit .236 with two home runs and 13 RBIs through his first 41 appearances this season. The two-time All-Star hit .310 with 14 home runs and 54 RBIs over 86 appearances in 2024. The Twins (27-22) are tied with the Cleveland Guardians (27-22) for second place in the American League Central, five games behind the division-leading Detroit Tigers (33-18). On Thursday, the Twins optioned infielder Ryan Fitzgerald to Triple-A St. Paul. They sent infielder-catcher Mickey Gasper to St. Paul in a corresponding move. The Twins will host the fourth-place Royals (28-23) in the first game of a three-game series at 8:10 p.m. EDT Friday in Minneapolis.

Twins Byron Buxton joins teammate Carlos Corea on 7-day concussion injured list
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Minnesota Twins center fielder Byron Buxton has joined shortstop Carlos Correa on the 7-day concussion injured list after the teammates collided while chasing a shallow fly ball in a Thursday afternoon game against the Baltimore Orioles. Buxton was placed on the injured list before the Twins' Saturday night game at Milwaukee. Correa had been added to the injured list a day earlier. 'There's a reason why this is the type of injury we have these types of protocols — many, many steps and clearances you have to go through,' Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said before Saturday's game, prior to Buxton's move to the concussion injured list was announced. 'Because there's not an easy way to diagnose and treat and monitor. You have to be thoughtful.' In the third inning of the Twins' 4-0 victory Thursday, Correa retreated to the outfield grass for the ball while Buxton raced in and appeared to call for it at the last second before they banged heads. Bench coach Jayce Tingler, filling in for Baldelli because of an illness, indicated after the game that the crowd noise hampered their communication during the play. Buxton has been limited by injuries for much of his career — his 102 games played last year represented his highest total since 2017 — but he had appeared in 41 of Minnesota's first 44 games before this collision. The 31-year-old is batting .261 with a .312 on-base percentage, 10 homers, 27 RBIs and eight steals. The 30-year-old Correa had missed just three games this season before the collision — all scheduled rest days — after being limited to 86 games last season because of plantar fasciitis in his right foot. Correa, a three-time All-Star, is hitting .236 with a .274 on-base percentage, two homers and 13 RBIs this season. For a second straight game, DaShawn Keirsey Jr. started in Buxton's place at center field and Brooks Lee filled in for Correa at shortstop. Utilityman Willi Castro also was out of the starting lineup Saturday after fouling a ball off his right knee a night earlier in a 3-0 victory at Milwaukee that marked the Twins' 12th consecutive win.
