Today on The Point, it's the news roundup where we revisit stories making regional headlines this week.

Among the stories we will be talking about: Housing Assistance is offering their first-ever middle-income condos; WHOI’s RV Neil Armstrong on its first fresh water voyage in Lake Superior; and from cornhole to kitchen aids, local libraries loan out more than just books through their “library of things.”
