  • Chapter 4 — Citywide Conditions 29
    Citywide Conditions Chapter 4 — Citywide Conditions 29 Th e reality that became Map 9 Youngstown after the 1951 & 1974 plans only slightly resembles the intentions of the planners. Th e current land use (see Map 9) shows prescribed uses peppered with widespread non- conforming uses. It demonstrates far too much commercial, industrial and residential use for a city of 82,000. Th e current land use shows the need to plan for the new reality of a smaller city. 30 Chapter 4 — Citywide Conditions Population Th e City of Youngstown has experienced an average of 16% population decline every ten years for the past 40 years and has lost over half its total population. It is anticipated that this trend will slow and the population will stabilize. Race White Black Other Th e racial make up the City has changed over time as well. Twenty years ago 64% of the population was white and by 2000, it was just over 50%. Th e city had become racially balanced. Age Th e majority of the population of the city in 2000 was between 20 and 54 years old. An important factor to consider is that of the 25.3 % of the population over the age of 55 years old, 17.4 % were over the age of 65.

  • Xi. Preservation in Middle Neighborhoods: Promising Results in Ohio 147
    XI. PRESERVATION IN MIDDLE NEIGHBORHOODS: PROMISING RESULTS IN OHIO By Cara Bertron, Preservation Rightsizing Network and Nicholas Hamilton, The American Assembly, Columbia University At its heart, historic preservation is about recognizing and valuing what was created in the past. It offers a lens for recognizing the value of neighborhoods and telling the stories of the people who have shaped and continue to shape them. This chapter articulates the case for a community- oriented preservation model that supports longtime residents, creates pathways for newcomers, and strengthens neighborhoods for all. The idea that there is economic, social, and environmental value worth preserving in existing buildings, neighborhoods, and communities is an essential theme in stabilizing middle neighborhoods. Stabilization is often discussed in theoretical terms, but it has very practical effects on neighborhood real estate values, as the other chapters in this book attest. Reinvesting in buildings can boost property values. When the process of reinvestment includes and honors local communities and their ongoing stories—their heritage—preservation can be a powerful tool for significant and sustainable change in neighborhood dynamics. Preservation offers an approach to and set of strategies for thoughtfully managing change in areas with high development or demolition pressures. The most obvious tools for managing change are zoning and other local regulations—particularly in designated historic districts—and financial tools, such as historic tax credits and tax abatements.1 However, this chapter focuses on strategies and tools that are not tied to historic designation and thus are more broadly applicable in middle neighborhoods and elsewhere. These tools help to stabilize and strengthen real estate markets in older neighborhoods and, in a related benefit, provide an avenue for active community stewardship of places.

    Pieces of the Past Historical Sketches of the Public Library of Youngstown & Mahoning Co. Library Executive Director Aimee Fifarek 305 Wick Ave., Youngstown, OH 44503 Editor: Janet S. Loew Note: Original document written in 1957. Communications / Public Relations Director Edited and last updated: May 2018 The Youngstown Library Association, now the Public Library of Youngstown & Mahoning County, was founded October 27, 1880. This Library has a rich history of dedicated directors and staff members and equally dedicated and notable trustees. The pages below contain current, as well as historical information. The history is provided as written by library staff members and directors throughout the years, giving the document the flavor of a rich fabric, woven throughout the past, and providing the essence of today’s library system. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ History of the Reuben McMillan Free Library Association to 1957 By James C. Foutts, Director 1944 - 1964 The first legal steps to provide public library service for the city of Youngstown were taken on October 27, 1880, when the Superintendent of Schools [Reuben McMillan], two of his teachers and two physicians signed the Articles of Incorporation establishing the Youngstown Library Association. These charter members were Reuben McMillan, Sarah E. Pearson, Julia Hitchcock, Dr. F. S. Whitslar and Dr. J. S. Cunningham. At this time the library already has been operating as Youngstown School Library for about 10 years and was located in the offices of the Board of Education and the First National Bank Building on West Federal Street. The historical beginning of the library was some time in the 1840's after the General Assembly of Ohio passed a law providing for the furnishing of books to every school district in the state.

  • South Side Planning District
    70 Chapter 7 — Planning Districts South Side Planning District Th e South Side planning District is comprised of eleven neighborhoods. Th ese neighborhoods are from all phases of the City’s development and expansion and as a result each has a unique set of characteristics. Th e older neighborhoods in this district, Oak Hill, Erie, and Lower Gibson were the fi rst neighborhoods to coalesce on the South Side as Youngstown started to shift from an agrarian to an industrial settlement. Th ere were always farmsteads along the water courses, but industry needed labor and labor needed housing and this group of neighborhoods was the fi rst to develop for this function. Th e other neighborhoods on the South Side, Idora, Warren, Newport, Lansingville, Buckeye Plat, Cottage Grove, Pleasant Grove and Brownlee Woods came into being as industry and population expanded. Th ey came with various transportation improvements, and originally many were class exclusive. Location Like the rest of Youngstown, the South Side is delimited by water courses. Mill Creek is the western boundary while the Mahoning River defi nes the north and east. Th e exception is that a portion of the north is bordered by Interstate 680. Th e southern border of the South Side is the City limit with Struthers and Boardman Township. Neighborhoods 1. Oak Hill Oak Hill or pieces of was the fi rst South Side Neighborhood to be incorporated into the City of Youngstown. Because what is now Oak Hill Avenue off ered the point of least resistance to the top of what was known as ‘Impassable Ridge’ and the relatively fl at land on the South Side, there was early settlement sections adjacent to Mahoning Commons which were in the initial municipal incorporation of 1869.
