• Factory-built homes can cost less. On Long Island, the land is the catch. (newsday.com) — Uniondale residents are seeing modular construction used close to home, with Uniondale Community Land Trust recently selling a factory-built house on Uniondale Avenue for $275,000 to a Queens family. The story explains how modular homes can cut construction time and costs, but also shows how high Long Island land prices limit affordability, even when nonprofits and state programs step in with subsidies.
   

• The NY Islanders have one of the longest droughts in the NHL when it comes to playoff series wins (eyesonisles.com) — Islanders fans in Uniondale will recognize the referenced 2021 overtime win at Nassau Coliseum, but the piece mainly tracks how the team has since slipped into one of the NHL’s longer playoff-series droughts. It compares New York’s recent postseason struggles with other franchises and argues that rising star Matthew Schaefer could help make Long Island a more attractive destination again.
