šļø New Homes Coming to Malverne!
Great news for anyone looking to move to Malverne! The village board just said yes to building new homes on Church Street, and everyone's pretty excited about it. The plan is to put up 12 new living spaces at 61 Church Street. These aren't just any old apartments ā they're being built with both families and single folks in mind. It's nice to see the village growing while keeping its small-town feel.

š”ļø Hospital Security Gets Smart: Northwell Health's AI Guardian
Northwell Health is changing the game in hospital safety with some pretty cool new tech. They've started using AI cameras that can spot weapons in real-time, making their hospitals much safer for everyone who walks through their doors. The system keeps an eye on things 24/7, immediately alerting security teams if something's not right. It's like having an extra set of super-smart eyes watching over patients and staff.
