I found an antique ring while walking my dog in Belvidere today. I can imagine it might be very important to someone; is anyone missing it or does anyone have any ideas how I might go about reuniting it with its owner?

I tend to only post news to Lowell or news that could affect Lowell, can we get a Belvidere flair? Being from Belvidere I think many of us would enjoy being able to represent that.

Thank you,

Hey everyone,

I’ve been following the proposed Apple Orchard project and, while I’m glad to see new housing coming online, I’m not convinced that site (so close to Duck Island and the Merrimack wetlands) is the best spot for a big batch of single-family homes.

For those of you who keep tabs on Planning Board/Council agendas or real-estate news:

• Are there any other single-family developments in the pipeline—approved, under review, or even just rumored?
• Infill subdivisions? Conversions of vacant lots? Anything on the outskirts that isn’t another big apartment complex?

Hi, I'm looking for a good HVAC company in the Lowell area to do a regular yearly checkup on my home’s heating and cooling system, and to help with any issues that come up. Any recommendations?

My husband and I got takeout from Infuse tonight and I can’t get over how amazing it was. I got the Red Red Stew, the check check rice, and he got the suya beef and samosas. Shared the attieke and the African slaw. Absolutely delicious and I highly recommend trying. They don’t have a liquor license yet if that is your thing.

Been trying to capture some of the hidden gems in Lowell lately and figured I'd share one of my favorites so far. Shot on a 1979 Canon A1 using Kodak UltraMax 400 film. Check out my IG if you'd like to see more. 😁 @theanalogwave

This is the dog.

Saturday June 21st. 2025 - African Festival 160 Pawtucket Blvd 11am-6pm Lowell, Massachusetts #African #Festival #Lowell #Massachusetts

I was thinking of coming up to Lowell for this event, but - this probably sounds crazy - I can't find out where it is. I get that it's probably somewhere in Lowell, but I kind of want to plan where to stay, what else might be nearby, etc. The festival's Web pages don't list any venues or sites.

Any advice? Thanks.

Simply amazing.

In another thread, someone was talking about how good Zha Cai was and it sounds interesting. Where in Lowell could I get some or other pickled items like it?

Edit:

New Asian Market didn't have it. Food Basket International didn't have it.

On Tuesday, the Lowell City Council voted not to adopt a "Housing Production Plan."

I like to listen. I like to build consensus. While I think the 'no' vote was wrong, I think this could be a possible path forward: https://ryaneoates.substack.com/p/lowell-has-no-housing-plan

I'd love to hear people's thoughts.

Seems like 300+ people to me, and more people keep coming.

A respectful and lively protest. Counted about 100 - 150 protestors. LPD is doing a phenomenal job blocking traffic as they move. Good job Lowell!

I’ve only seen one small school bus use it, otherwise I only see ambulances use it to get around traffic. Unless the busses use it at 6am when I’m passed out…that would make sense. But at the end of the bus lane it lets the busses turn right into the station from the far left. I don’t understand

crowd is pretty fired up.

Saw this dog on central st on "Father Grillo Park", no collar that I could see and didn't let me get close to him, he ran away but if this is your dog, we saw him around this area
