When is YSU going to start investing money in replacing the worn out STEM college buildings? Namely, Ward Beecher Hall. They keep talking about advancements in STEM but have the professors working in antiquated facilities.
The city seems to be doing everything it can to get new business downtown. What is it doing to keep established business downtown. Agency on Aging and Butler Wick are two of the more recent departures. I have heard there are some of Frangos tenants that are considering leaving downtown also.
The city income tax and lack of "quality" parking are two of the reasons heard most often for business leaving.
WATTS going on

Looks like 231 pages of fun reading.

I would like to see where the $1.3 million was spent.
I stopped taking the elevators a few years ago when the inspection certificates were invalid. The steps on the southwest corner are now buckling.
Water backs up into the basement every time it rains.
The city has done way too much for Lou Frangos. He has to start being a responsible landlord on all of his properties.

Vindicator print subscribers: Sunday delivery may be late
How long are we supposed to wait? It is now after 2:00 pm and still no paper.
At least give us a time frame of how late you are running. Or do we get it delivered with Mondays paper?

Police standoff with machete-weilding man in Austintown
The spelling is wrong in the headline. I agree the Vindy needs some new spelling and grammar checkers. Or are they part of the dumbing down trend?

After two years, downtown scaffolding remains
Where have you been censoredship?
There is a farmer's market on central square every Tuesday from 11:30 to 3:00.
Last summer there were some musicians playing on the square during lunch hour on Friday's, although I have not seen any yet this year.
The Realty Building has recently been converted into apartments. With rent starting @ $1200.00/mo that may not be reasonbly priced for most people.
Have you seen the new facades on the Lemon Grove and Rosetta Stone on West Federal. Several other facades have been cleaned up.
Come downtown and take a look at everything-not just what you see on the news. You may be pleasantly surprised.
