There's a big change coming to Gorge Park that you might want to check out before it happens. In about two weeks, they’re starting a two-year project to remove a whopping eleven football fields' worth of sediment from the waterfall area. So, if you're hoping to enjoy the view, now's the time to go, because who knows what they'll rope off when the construction kicks in. On a different note, we dive into the local crime scene where, surprise, surprise, it turns out crime isn’t actually down, despite what the officials may claim. Oh, and if you're craving Skyway, tough luck; you'll have to drive to Fairlawn now.

Takeaways:

• The Gorge Park is about to undergo major construction, altering its waterfall view for two years.
• Crime rates in Akron are a confusing topic, with recent incidents sparking debate about safety.
• Skyway restaurant in Green has closed permanently after 28 years, leaving fans with few options.
• Free tickets to the Akron Zoo are available for Summit County residents, but they are limited.
• The WNBA is returning to Cleveland, with hopes for a new team name and exciting plans ahead.
• John Cusack is making an appearance in Northfield, providing a nostalgic movie experience for fans.
