This art was too a-peeling: Giant banana sculpture stolen from N.H. town.
'I love this banana. I thought it was one of the most exciting things that's happened in Franconia in a long time,' said one local artist, Alison Dodd, in a video the Artwalk organizers made about the banana's disappearance. Advertisement The same characteristics that made the artwork an instant hit in town may have made it enticing to the thief, according to Lovett. Get N.H. Morning Report A weekday newsletter delivering the N.H. news you need to know right to your inbox. Enter Email Sign Up 'I have to say the banana was very attractive. It was a bright color, and I think we didn't really look at the security of the structure well enough because we never had a problem,' she said. 'We're fairly naive. Now we're rethinking that.' She said the banana sculpture was particularly vulnerable compared to the other 36 or so artworks on display, most of which are bolted into concrete. It was also lightweight, and it hadn't been secured with wires or locks – the thief simply had to cut through a nylon cord attaching it to the fishing pole, according to Lovett. Advertisement Lovett said she was working on plans for a community garden when she began getting calls from people who were concerned that the banana had gone missing. Then, she said, she rushed to the scene and saw for herself that it had been taken. She informed the police and spoke with the restaurant owner. 'No one knows where the banana is,' she said. Franconia Police Chief Martin 'Mac' Cashin said his department is investigating the theft, but so far, they don't have any leads or suspects. He said there hasn't been any security footage that has yielded clues about who might have absconded with the banana. 'I'm hoping that this is a senior prank of some sort and I'm hoping that somebody will return it undamaged,' said Cashin. The artwork was created by Massachusetts-based sculptor and art educator 'The idea of someone trying to smuggle around a giant banana is just objectively hilarious, but of course I am annoyed that the sculpture can't be seen anymore,' he said in a statement. The banana was valued at $475, according to Lovett. Members of the public with information about the missing banana can call the Franconia Police Department at 603-823-7025. 'Just want that banana back,' said Lovett.

Development on townhomes in historic Dayton neighborhood progressing steadily
Progress on the new housing in the Historic Wright Dunbar Village is going well. [DOWNLOAD: Free WHIO-TV News app for alerts as news breaks] As reported on News Center 7 at 6:00 p.m., there was a ribbon cutting for the townhomes development Tuesday, where city leaders said the housing will help the area in several ways. TRENDING STORIES: Officers looking for man, woman last seen at Troy Aquatic Park Bodies of 3 sisters found after visit with their father; Court records reveal likely cause of death UPDATE: Busy street closed after serious motorcycle crash in Montgomery County The Townhomes at Wright Dunbar will eventually have 26 units in four buildings, and city leaders said the market rate housing will increase everyone's property values. But the real bottom line is that new homeowners will get a great new place to live. Aaliyah Lovett is one of the three people who have already bought a home at the Townhomes, but only the model home is completely finished. Lovett has lived in the Wright-Dunbar neighborhood for 8 years and is now invested than ever. 'I'm really passionate about the development that is happening in West Dayton, so to be a part of it and to help continue to fuel the economy is really nice,' Lovett said. The developers at the Townhomes, Charles Simms Builders, will have two of the four buildings completed by the end of the year. They've completed projects across Dayton, but this is the first one in the historic West Dayton neighborhood. 'We've been looking at the Wright Dunbar neighborhoods since 2019, and we settled on West Third Street kind of makes the most sense,' Robi Simms, with Charles Simms Builders, said. 'If you drive up and down Third Street here, you can see all the beautiful old architecture and these buildings that's been preserved wonderfully, and we're just happy to be able to add to that,' Crosby Simms with Charles Simms Builders said. The units are three-story townhomes that have two-car garages on the ground floor and room to park a third vehicle in the driveway. City leaders say more housing in this neighborhood means more people to support lots of new businesses already there or in the planning stages on the West Third Street Corridor. 'Oh, it's moving, it's moving a lot as you see more and more work. Just five years ago, we're thinking about what was happening right here, nothing,' Dayton Mayor Jeff Mims said. City leaders said they would love to see 10 more developments from Simms Builders in Dayton, but like anything real estate related, all parties agreed it's about location.
