WASHINGTON -
A 10-year-old Maryland boy's biggest dream came true Monday night, and his story has already melted the hearts of millions around the world. For Christopher Warner, this night is all about one thing: Maroon 5.
FOX 5 first introduced you to Christopher last week. He has Down syndrome, but in many ways, he's just like every other kid -- including in his taste in music. His favorite band on the planet is Maroon 5, and of course, they're playing at the Verizon Center in D.C. Monday night.
Adam Levine's band has truly captured Christopher's heart, but on this night, he was sure to capture theirs. Christopher met his idols backstage before the show, and to say he could hardly wait would be a huge understatement.
When Christopher finally met the band backstage, he was really excited! Actually, a little TOO excited. He had a bit of a panic attack. But Maroon 5 took it in stride, so the whole band, his mother and Intern John of The Kane Show all laid down with Christopher for this heartwarming picture!
Christopher even got a pair of drumsticks from the drummer of Maroon 5 after the meet and greet!
This all started when his teachers and classmates at West Friendship Elementary School in West Friendship, Md. became well aware of his love for the band. Christopher did a writing project on Maroon 5, and even sung one of their songs, "One More Night," at the school's karaoke event.
Oh, and he sings. Over and over and over -- and it's adorable. Christopher's teachers made a YouTube video showing his love for Maroon 5 and sent it to FOX 5 and The Kane Show on D.C. radio station Hot 99.5. The Kane Show used their contacts to help get him in the show, and backstage.

NEW CANAAN, Conn. - In the years after World War II, when suburban towns were still "the country," this unassuming village an hour north of Manhattan became an epicenter of modernist architecture, and a birthplace of then-radical concepts like family rooms, floor-to-ceiling windows and open-plan living.
Since then, the surviving homes have continued to evolve, a transformation explored in a new book that looks at 16 of New Canaan's 91 remaining homes from this influential era.
"These homes were meant to be truly modern, to adapt. Preservation is about keeping the character while allowing these homes to move on," said architect Cristina A. Ross, who with architect Jeffrey Matz, photographer Michael Biondo and graphic designer Lorenzo Ottaviani produced the book, "Midcentury Houses Today" (Monacelli Press, 2014).
In New Canaan, she said, "the concentration of homes and the number of surviving houses to this day is incredibly unique."
Through photos, detailed floor plans and time lines, and the voices of architects, builders and occupants, the book traces the original structures and subsequent additions, devoting a full chapter to each home.
Unlike the modernist architecture of the Midwest, New Canaan's modernist homes directly reflect the principles of the Bauhaus school of design in Germany, established by architect Walter Gropius. When the Nazi regime closed down the Bauhaus in the 1930s, Gropius became chairman of the architecture department at the Graduate School of Design at Harvard. He was later joined by Marcel Breuer. Together, the two passed on their esthetic emphasizing volume; large areas of glass juxtaposed by blank walls; flat roofs; freedom from architectural ornamentation to students and associates.
Breuer, Eliot Noyes, Landis Gores, Philip Johnson and John Johansen, all early promulgators of modernism in New Canaan, became known as the Harvard Five. They moved to New Canaan, near the last stop on the commuter rail line and near the newly constructed Merritt Parkway. Land was cheap and plentiful enough to allow for new experiments in architecture. They were soon joined there by architects Victor Christ-Janer, John Black Lee and others.
"They were experimenting, and they were fast and furiously creating the way they felt people should be living," said Ross. "They were designing the offices for IBM, for big corporations, and people became so enamoured of the work environment that many CEOs wanted to bring that streamlining and flow to their home life."

GeniusCentral Grows Executive Staff with Two New Hires
Tensions between the Montgomery County Council and the school system are a staple of annual budget deliberations, but a proposal to spend $31million to renovate the councils aging office building has turned into more of a schoolyard brawl.
Board of Education President Patricia ONeill on Monday called out the council and accused members of exercising poor political timing by considering the project when school officials are trying to win additional construction money from state lawmakers to address overcrowding.
We have 9,300 children in [classroom trailers], ONeill said. We have children sitting in some classrooms with coats on because of poor heating systems.
Those comments followed an e-mail that Council President George Leventhal sent to council members late Friday warning that the school system intends to campaign against appropriations for council facilities. On Monday, he said ONeill and the board were being unreasonable.
In the school systems view, 100percent of the budget should be available for school construction, he said. Their plan is that any available dollar should go to school construction.
Sen. Nancy King (D-Montgomery) has sponsored a bill that would provide $20 million a year in state funds to leverage the issuance of $700million in school construction bonds. She said Monday that the councils renovation plans likely would have no impact on her measure, which has no better than a slim chance of passage this year.
Schools take up about half of the countys operating budget, and education officials routinely press for millions more than County Executive Isiah Leggett (D) or the council are willing to provide. Council office renovations are one of this years flash points.
The council is weighing a plan to amend its capital improvements budget to modernize its headquarters on Maryland Avenue in Rockville. Parts of the facility date back to the 1940s. The plan would replace heating and air conditioning systems, lighting and windows, and expand office space for council members and its research arm, the Office of Legislative Oversight. It also calls for renovation of the buildings first-floor auditorium.
About $25million of the total cost would be covered by proceeds from the sale of general obligation bonds.
An alternative proposal calls for renovating the Grey and Red Brick Courthouses for new council offices. The Grey Courthouse is vacant with the opening of the new south tower of Montgomery County Circuit Court on Jefferson Street last year. The cost is an estimated $36million, which would also be financed with bond funds.

An office building near Sevenoaks station has been sold by developers for 11 million in a deal which is likely to see it turned into flats.
Development Securities have made an initial profit of 3 million from the sale of Tubs Hill House to residential development business Prime Place, part of construction firm Willmott Dixon.
The property investment business bought the 64,800 sq ft commerical property in November 2013, when administrators acting for Lloyds were selling off assets of the taxpayer-owned bank.
Tubs Hill House in London Road, Sevenoaks, has been sold by developers for 11 million
Since then, Development Securities has applied to turn the offices recognised for its twin towers into residential accommodation, with a planning permission submitted to convert it into 91 apartments.
If the application is approved, the firm will receive another payment of 2 million.
Development Securities executive director Matthew Weiner said: Tubs Hill House will create a desirable new residential tower in Sevenoaks, a key London commuter town where residential demand is very strong.
Willmott Dixon is an experienced residential developer and we are pleased to have secured a sale to such a high-quality partner.
This latest sale demonstrates our trading activities whereby we are able to source sound opportunities and then capture value over the short-term, adding to our strengthening cash flows.
