HUBER HEIGHTS, Ohio (WDTN) — During his State of the City address, Mayor Jeff Gore revealed plans for several new developments in Huber Heights.
Mayor Gore announced three major developments coming to the city in the next few years.
Walls installed at Huber Heights Buc-ee's site
First, a new indoor music venue will be coming to Executive Boulevard. The 56,000 square foot 'cutting edge performance space' will be able to accommodate 3,500 guests for a variety of events and shows.
The venue is estimated to open in 2028.
Additionally, a new hotel will open adjacent to the venue, featuring two restaurants within.
Gore says the venue and hotel will further establish an entertainment district for Huber Heights, offering 'a dynamic hub for conferences, expos, and special events.'
Finally, Dublin Pub will open a new location, Dublin Seven, offering upscale Irish cuisine, live music and more. This restaurant will also be located within the entertainment district.
Mayor Gore says these announcements are a major step forward for Huber Heights.
'These announcements are all wonderful signs of our momentum, and each represent the kind of city that we're building together,' said Gore. 'One that values connection, celebrates progress and plans boldly for our future.'
Mayor Gore also praised the city's growth in the past year, stating 30 new businesses opened in Huber Heights last year, and 22 have opened so far this year.

6 surprising Love Island couples over the years as Alima and Ben's connection is revealed out of nowhere

We were surprised to see Love Island's Ben and Alima kissing outside of a challenge on last night's episode (Tuesday 1st July). Following the heart race challenge, the duo retreated to an area in the garden where they talked about how well they did in the challenge. Ben gushed about his heart being raised the most by Alima and then complimented her, saying that her face card goes crazy. He then leaned in for a kiss, as some of the girls cheered on from afar. In the girls' dressing room, Alima said that she found him attractive and that there's sexual chemistry between them, but she wanted to see if it was more than that. Their kiss got us thinking about all the surprising or unlikely relationships we've seen on the show over the years. From Ben and Alima to Maura and Curtis, here's some of the couples we didn't see coming. I actually thought Alima couldn't stand Ben, especially after she pied him during Snog, Marry, Pie and told him off for the way he speaks to the girls in the villa. But, during the heart race challenge, it looked like there could be a little something going on between them and they confirmed it with a kiss. I can still remember the moment Maura revealed that she fancied Curtis back in season five. She'd been flirting with Tommy Fury initially and then Tom Walker, so it seemed to come out of nowhere when the fiery, Irish babe's attention diverted to dancer Curtis. They ended up finishing in fourth place together and had a seven-month relationship outside of the show. So, there's hope yet for Ben and Alima. They didn't seem like the perfect match to begin with, but Nas and Eva actually went on to have a four-year relationship after meeting on the first winter edition back in 2020. Sadly they split in 2024, and Nas returned for the All Stars series in 2025. These two are actually engaged now! Lucie from season five and Luke from season six started dating in 2020 and got engaged under the Northern Lights in Finland in December 2021. On their separate seasons, Lucie was drawn to Tommy Fury, but he stayed in a couple with Molly-Mae, while Luke had a thing with Demi Jones. While Anton seemed very into Georgia Harrison when they met on the first series of Love Island All Stars in January 2024, it took Georgia some time to warm to Anton. Eventually things got off the ground and they made it to the end of the show, finishing in fifth place. They spent some time together, but called it quits in May 2024, as they lacked a deeper romantic spark. Season two of Love Island was full of dramatic moments, and one of them saw Rykard deciding to leave, after his partner Rachel Fenton was dumped from the villa. At the time, they'd only known each other a little while, and Rykard had previously had an interest in Malin and also got intimate with Olivia in the bedroom, while Rachel slept a few feet away. So it was a shock to see him end his experience on the show, but definitely worth it, with the pair enjoying an 18-month relationship outside of the show. New episodes of Love Island air on weekdays and Sundays on ITV2 at 9pm.

The Corrs conquer Madrid with their mix of pop rock and Celtic notes

As if the hot, soaring temperatures were not enough to deal with, the final day of June brought an enormous thunderstorm to Madrid, which for a while threatened to make The Corrs return a washout even before it started. But the rain eventually gave way and just after 10pm, Andrea, Sharon, Caroline and Jim came out on stage and the applause from the audience made it clear that thousands had been eagerly awaiting the return of the Irish band to Spanish shores. The chords of 'Only When I Sleep' started to play... and the show began! Andrea's voice perhaps suggested that she had been performing for several weeks, but the singer still moved the crowd. After the second song, Andrea approached the microphone and the next charm offensive was upon us: "Buenas noches Madrid, es un placer estar aquí", something we Spaniards appreciate very much: 'guiris' (foreign tourists) speaking the language of Cervantes. Back to Shakespeare's language, he commented that they love Spain and Madrid because his sister Sharon lives here.** Their pop rock mixed with Celtic notes take us back to the early hits of the Irish with songs taken from their first albums 'Forgiven not Forgotten' and 'Talk on Corners' from the mid and late 90's (yes, I'm a sucker for nostalgia...). The auditorium of the Tierno Galván park was packed to the rafters, and the audience was devoted and never tired of singing and applauding the songs of the Irish and the Corrs brothers, who ended up surrendering and thanking them for such affection. The audience came from different parts of the world: Spaniards, Argentinians, Irish (even the brothers' fellow countrymen from Dundalk, the Corrs; birthplace). Between the songs they played tracks like 'Summer Sunshine' included in 'Borrowed Heaven' from 2005 and 'White Light', included in the album of the same name from 2015. There was time for everything; their best known hits and two covers - 'Old Town' by Phil Lynott and 'Dreams' by Fleetwood Mac. And of course there was no shortage of folkier, more traditional songs that took us back to their native Dundalk. Caroline sat on a flamenco box with her bodhrán, Sharon on the fiddle, Andrea with her Irish flute and Jim on the piano. Andrea wasn't the only one who ventured into Spanish after the interval, as Sharon introduced 'All The Love In The World' in Spanish. After that they continued with 'Breathless' and the instrumental 'Toss the Feathers' to close the concert and their tour. Sharon began a solo career in 2010 that has led her to release three albums. The latest of these, 'The Fool and The Scorpion', (2021) written shortly after her much publicised break-up, has been mired in controversy. Indeed, the eldest of the sisters was married to Robert Gavin Bonnar, and during a holiday in Andorra the couple met Telma Ortiz, Queen Letizia's sister, with whom they hit it off and became friends. Once the couple separated, Robert began an affair with Telma and they even had a child together, something that understandably didn't sit well with Andrea. On the album 'The Fool and The Scorpion' there is a song of the same name whose lyrics are widely assumed to be a her revenge track. The verse reads: "You'll have your desserts, served cold in the grave of my tenderness. The arms she flew to, they'll sting you to death. I bet the bed was on fire and you came all day. But now your heart is wretched and your soul took a beating. The fool and the scorpion. The queen's twisted sister and the chameleon. I am free, I am free, I am reborn". We don't know how these lyrics and this song have gone down with the new couple, but Sharon seems to have let out all her pent-up rage. The Queen is a great lover of music, but we have no way of knowing if she was in the crowd for the Irish band's return to Madrid.
