Oh please, oh please, if you put a grocery store there, could you do an organic market similar to Cleveland's Trader Joe, or Mustard Seed Market, or Wild Oats Market. If Youngstown doesn't do this soon, Boardman or Austintown will, you can count on it. If it is built people will come.

Anthony Kobak will keep you up to date on the 2010 project. He is pretty efficient about sending out emails.
I agree that Y-town should cultivate it's history to develop it's identity for the future. For instance, the Warner Brothers lived in Y-town and started their entertainment biz there. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Warner
Not many people are aware of this cinema trivia...That is one example of Y-town history that can be used to shape the future perception of the town.

Talking of the future does anyone know what's going to happen with Garland Plaza in Landsdowne. The site of the now defunct gov. offices and bowling alley owned by the Cafaro. Co. Anyway, I'm looking into starting a personal campaign to have a super market, Home Depot or Lowes installed in that plaza. While visiting Y-Town I noticed that a SUPER MARKET is sorely needed in the Landsdowne section of town.
