Wexford swimmers continue fine form with high-energy performances at regional championships
On Friday evening, the weekend got off to a flying start with a strong performance by the Mixed Relay Team comprised of members Sean Moran, Loughlin Daniels, Katie Ryan, and Emersyn Scully, which set the tone for the days ahead.

Pietro's finds new home blocks away from longtime spot
After four decades in one spot, Pietro's steakhouse is on the move — but loyal customers won't have to travel far to find its new home. After serving up steaks in one location for 40 years, Pietro's is moving a few blocks up the street in June. Founded in 1932, the restaurant had been located at 232 E. 43rd St. for around 40 years. The Italian-style steakhouse closed last year, however, because the building it was housed in was sold for a residential conversion, according to a representative of Lee & Associates NYC. Now Pietro's will be in an approximately 5,100-square-foot space at 890 Second Ave. that includes around 3,600 square feet on the ground floor and 1,500 square feet of lower-level space. The lease is for 15 years. Lee & Associates NYC's Cory Gahr represented Pietro's on the deal. The landlord, Stellar Management, was represented by Cushman & Wakefield's Sean Moran and Patrick O'Rourke. 'Pietro's is a multigenerational dining institution,' Gahr said in a statement. 'Seeking a turnkey space near its previous location on 43rd Street, Pietro's aimed to continue serving its loyal customer base.' The new location at 890 Second Ave. offers 'both convenience and strategic positioning for the restaurant's continued success,' he added. 'Situated just blocks from the United Nations and surrounded by a vibrant mix of businesses, residences and landmarks, this prime location offers unparalleled visibility and access to a diverse, dynamic community,' Jeremy Campbell, general counsel of Stellar Management, said in the statement.
