Press Coverage


Most of the national stories about Youngstown seem to focus on the shutdown of the steel mills and the problems they left behind.

“The Place That Makes Us,” a documentary film highlighting the work and team members of Youngstown Neighborhood Development Corporation, as well as Youngstown residents, will premiere online this week.

Youngstown regularly resurfaces in film and on TV newsmagazines as the poster child for post-industrial decay and economic decline.

Salem-based J. Herbert Construction was picked among 10 firms to prepare the former TCF Bank branch property at Market Street and Midlothian Boulevard for a new coffee and doughnut store.

The Youngstown Neighborhood Development Corporation has been awarded $7,052 by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
