3. 3 lanes open as N. Veterans Parkway wraps up (keloland.com) — North Veterans Parkway in eastern Sioux Falls now has three lanes open in each direction between I-90 and 57th Street, easing a major commuter route. Construction continues between 6th and 18th Streets, with completion expected in November, and includes new bike paths, safer crossings, and long-term structural improvements designed to keep traffic moving efficiently for years.
   

4. New ownership, same B&G Milkyway (dakotanewsnow.com) — The B&G Milkyway at Cliff Avenue and 69th Street in Sioux Falls now belongs to Celebrate Church, but longtime customers are promised the same ice cream, treats, and staff. Profits from the shop will be reinvested into community needs, including support for local schools, programs, and youth leadership development for its 50 part-time employees.
   

5. The demand for large office spaces, call centers (keloland.com) — Citibank is listing more than 85,000 square feet for lease at its newer Sioux Falls campus while its former north-side location, now owned by Vern Eide, awaits redevelopment.
