Mayor Alex B. Morse’s third inagural ball was one for the books, with more than 450 supporters showing up to dance and celebrate another reeclection of the city’s first openly gay mayor. When first elected, at 22, Morse also became Holyoke’s youngest mayor. Among the accomplishments of Morse’s first two terms, noted during the evening, were the redevelopment of both the canal walk and the Dwight and Northampton Street city gateways, and a new train platform. Festivities included a five-course dinner, dancing to a deejay and live music.
