Good morning, Scottsdale. Here's your local news at a glance for Saturday, the 26th of July.

CULTURE NEWS

  • A new photo archive shows how 13 popular Phoenix landmarks looked many years ago. The collection includes images of places like Phoenix Sky Harbor, Tovrea Castle and Taliesin West in Scottsdale—each spot marking a piece of our long-changing history.  The Arizona Republic

HEALTH NEWS

  • Jesse, who nearly weighed 300 pounds because his schizophrenia medicine made him gain weight, lost 15 pounds on Trulicity after his blood sugar spiked, but his Medicaid now stops covering the drug since it only pays for weight-loss medicines when a patient has diabetes or related illnesses. Patients and experts say low-income Arizonans must wait until their health worsens to get these drugs—raising fears that life-saving treatment is too costly until it is too late.  Scottsdale Independent

SPORTS NEWS

  • Make-A-Wish Arizona featured 14-year-old Alejandro Merino, who lives with cystic fibrosis, in ESPN’s 'My Wish' series when he met boxing champion Saúl 'Canelo' Álvarez — the feature will debut during the 7 a.m. ET SportsCenter broadcast and a Spanish version will air on ESPN Deportes.  Arizona Digital Free Press
